With the winter season approaching, Air France is pursuing a strategy based on the development of its long-haul network, the upgrading of its product offering and the reinforcement of its positions in major international markets. Following the launch of Las Vegas in the spring of 2026 and the reinforcement of New York, the airline continues to focus on the United States as well as long-haul leisure destinations.
Air France has this year added a CDG- routeLas Vegas, while New York continues to grow, with a second daily service added to Newark. Air France actually operates 11 daily flights between Paris and New York, JFK and Newark. In 2027, this air bridge will benefit from a new lounge in the New Terminal One at JFK with a capacity for 400 people. The latest improvement to the United States is that the route to Orlando is becoming daily.
In the long-haul leisure segment, the airline states that flights to Punta Cana will continue next year until 1st May, instead of the end of March. Also in this segment, Air France will operate two weekly flights to Male (Maldives), from 18th December to 8th March, while Phuket will be served by three direct weekly flights. Lastly, on 1st February 2027, an Airbus A350 will serve CDG-Saint-Martin, equipped with the new premium cabins.
On the European network, the company announced it was continuing its Paris CDG-London Gatwick service.
In the French West Indies, Air France will launch a Pointe-à-Pitre–Panama City service from 11 December, with seamless connections from Fort-de-France and Cayenne.
The upgrading of the service is continuing in parallel with the rollout of the new La Première suite. Following New York, Los Angeles, Singapore and Tokyo-Haneda, the cabin has been extended to several other destinations, notably Atlanta, Boston, Houston, San Francisco and Abidjan. Air France expects its entire La Première network to be equipped with the new cabin by the end of 2026.
