Air France will expand its long-haul network this winter with the addition of new routes to Thailand and the Dominican Republic.
The French flag carrier, in November, will launch three-times-weekly flights from Paris Charles de Gaulle to Phuket. Flights will operate from November 2025 to March 2026 on Boeing 777-300ER aircraft.
Seasonal flights connecting Paris to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic will also commence from 13 January. Services will operate three times weekly on Boeing 777-300ER aircraft through to 28 March 2026.
Air France will increase flight frequencies on a number of its existing long-haul routes this winter. Services to North Carolina and Cancún will see flight frequencies increase from five to seven times weekly, while its recently launched Orlando service will be extended into the winter season with five weekly flights.
Additional flight frequencies will also be added on routes to Rio de Janeiro (increased to 12 weekly flights), San José (10 weekly flights), Cape Town (seven weekly flights) and Bangkok, which will now be served twice daily from Paris.
The carrier will operate close to 800 daily flights to 170 destinations this winter, with long-haul capacity up 3 per cent compared to winter 2024.
In a separate announcement, the airline said it will launch a three-times-weekly service from Paris Charles de Gaulle to Las Vegas next summer. The service will commence on 15 April and becomes the airline's 19th destinations in the US.
Air France is also continuing the rollout of its new La Première suite, which will be offered on flights from Paris Charles de Gaulle to Miami from December 2025 and also on services to Tokyo Haneda from March 2026. The first class cabin is currently available on select flights from Paris to New York JFK, Singapore and Los Angeles.
