Air France winter 2021/22
The French national airline has been quick to put in place its winter schedule.
The summer routes between Paris Charles de Gaulle and Seville (Spain), Las Palmas (Canary Islands, Spain), Palma de Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain), Tangiers (Morocco), Faro (Portugal), Djerba (Tunisia) and Krakow (Poland), will also be continued after 31 October.
Air France is continuing to adapt its network and strengthen services to ‘leisure’ destinations. After announcing the launch of flights to Zanzibar (Tanzania), Colombo (Sri Lanka) and Muscat (Oman), the airline will be operating six new routes for the 2021 winter season (October 2021 – March 2022), on departures from Paris Charles de Gaulle, Paris Orly and Pointe-à-Pitre (Guadeloupe).
