Air France has announced the launch of a new direct route between Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport and Orlando International Airport, set to commence on May 21, 2025. The announcement was made on the social media platform X.

According to Business Traveller, Air France will operate this Paris-Orlando route four times weekly using Airbus A350-900 aircraft. The aircraft will feature seating arrangements of 34 seats in business class, 24 in premium economy, and 266 in economy. Flights are scheduled for Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.
