Air France Celebrates 1-Year Anniversary, Increases Service
Air France inaugurated nonstop service between PHX and Charles de Gaulle International Airport in Paris in May 2024 with service three times a week, and now we’re celebrating even more than a one-year anniversary.
Air France is increasing the number of times it flies from Phoenix to Paris to five times weekly this month.
The service originally launched with a Boeing 787-900 Dreamliner aircraft seating 279, but is now served with an Airbus 350-900 with a larger business class (34 seats) and a total seat capacity of 324.
Recently awarded “Sexiest New Long-haul Route,” by consumer air travel blog Cranky Flier, this increase to five times weekly means passengers will have more options and competitive fares to not only fly to France, but also to the other 190 destinations that Air France serves beyond Paris.
In other air service news, Alaska Airlines recently announced new three-time daily service between Phoenix and San Diego beginning Aug. 20. This will be the first time Alaska has offered Phoenix-San Diego service.
