Air France to Increase Paris Service to Five Times a Week
Air France has announced they will increase Phoenix service to Paris five times weekly beginning May 2025.
The new nonstop service between Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport and Charles de Gaulle International Airport in Paris, France was launched May 23, 2024, and has been served three times a week. This marked the first time there was nonstop service between Phoenix and France. The service originally launched with a Boeing 787-900 Dreamliner aircraft that had 279 seats. Due to the successful launch of the route, Air France increased the size of the aircraft for the winter season to a Boeing 777-200 with 328 seats.
When the service frequency increases for the summer season in May to five times weekly, the route will be served with an Airbus 350-900 that has a larger business class (34 seats) and a total seat capacity of 324 seats.
The increased service on the A350-900 will begin May 5, 2025. Flights will leave Paris at 10:45 a.m., arriving in Phoenix at 12:50 p.m. then depart Phoenix at 3:05 p.m., arriving in Paris the next day at 10:10 a.m.
