Air France to Launch Paris-Cancun Route

Starting on 21 October 2011, Air France will be operating three weekly services from Paris-Charles de Gaulle to Cancun (Mexico) on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. The flights will be operated by Boeing 777-300s with a total capacity of 472 seats: 14 in Business class and 458 in the Voyageur (Economy) cabin.

This new route comes in addition to the 17 weekly flights operated by Air France and Aeromexico, member of SkyTeam, between Paris and Mexico: 10 flights operated by Air France and 7 flights operated by Aeromexico. KLM also operates 7 weekly frequencies from Amsterdam to Mexico.

“The launch of flights to Cancun illustrates Air France-KLM’s desire to continue its development strategy in Mexico and Latin America by offering customers close to 30 weekly flights from Paris or Amsterdam to Mexico”, said Patrick Roux, SVP Air France-KLM for the Americas.
