Air France will fly to Cape Town in South Africa from Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport , with 3 weekly frequencies.

A city in the south-western corner of South Africa, situated on the Atlantic coast, Cape Town is the second biggest port as well as one of the major tourist destinations in South Africa.


Flights will be operated by a Boeing 777-200 with an overall capacity of 309 seats, equipped with 35 seats in the Business cabin, 24 seats in the Premium Voyageur cabin and 250 seats in the Voyageur cabin. On board, passengers will have the opportunity to discover Air France’s new Business Class seat that was launched last December.

This fresh route launch is a segment of Air France and KLM’s expansion policy on the African continent, with 4 new destinations in 2011: Freetown (Sierra Leone), Monrovia (Liberia), Bata (Equatorial Guinea) and Cape Town.

On their entire networks, Air France and KLM are planning to provide 12 new destinations in 2011.
