Air France Expands New York Services for Summer 2026
Air France will expand its services between Paris and New York during the summer 2026 season, offering up to 11 daily flights between Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport and the New York metropolitan area. Services will be split between John F. Kennedy International Airport and Newark Liberty International Airport.
On the Paris–New York JFK route, Air France will operate up to six daily flights. Of these, four services will be operated by Boeing 777-300ER aircraft equipped with La Première cabins, while a further three daily flights will be operated by partner airline Delta Air Lines under the transatlantic joint venture.
Between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Newark Liberty International Airport, Air France will operate up to two daily flights. From June 1, 2026, the route will increase from one to two daily frequencies. Flights on this sector will be operated by Airbus A350-900 aircraft featuring the airline’s latest cabin products, including the new Business Class seat with a sliding door. These cabins will also be available on Air France flights to and from New York JFK.
Aircraft operating services to and from New York are being progressively equipped with complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi powered by Starlink. Air France plans to deploy this connectivity across its fleet by the end of the year.
