Air France is set to reconnect Central Florida with Paris, resuming a direct route between Orlando International Airport (MCO) and Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) after more than a decade. Scheduled to launch on May 21, 2025, this service will operate four times a week, specifically on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, offering travelers from Orlando easy access to the vibrant French capital and additional global destinations.
Air France is reintroducing flights to Orlando with its advanced Airbus A350-900, offering a blend of style, comfort, and efficiency. This flagship aircraft is designed for a premium experience across three cabin classes: Business, Premium Economy, and Economy. The A350-900 provides 34 seats in Business, 24 in Premium Economy, and 266 in Economy, ensuring a comfortable journey with the airline’s renowned French touch and service.
With Orlando becoming Air France’s 18th U.S. and 25th North American destination, the route expands the airline’s extensive network, connecting to major cities like New York, Los Angeles, Boston, Miami, and Washington, D.C. This route reintroduction, after being discontinued in 2012, marks a significant return, made possible by the collaboration of Visit Orlando, Experience Kissimmee, and the Orlando Economic Partnership.
This new direct link between Orlando, known as the City Beautiful, and Paris, the City of Light, is anticipated to enhance tourism and business travel, broadening Orlando’s international appeal with seamless access to Air France’s extensive network of over 170 global destinations. Additionally, as a SkyTeam Alliance member, Air France enables European travelers to explore more destinations across the Americas through strategic partnerships with carriers such as Delta Air Lines and Aeromexico.
