Air France Expands UK Operations with New Service to Gatwick

Air France is set to launch new services to the UK and increase flight frequencies to/from the UK, where it already operates up to 300 weekly flights to 6 destinations.

Starting March 29, 2026, Air France will launch new flights between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and London Gatwick. The twice-daily service will be operated by Airbus A220 aircraft.

The flight schedule is designed to improve connection opportunities via the Paris-Charles de Gaulle hub to Air France’s global network of destinations.

London Gatwick, the British capital’s second-largest airport, offers excellent connections to central London (via Gatwick Express, Thameslink and the Southern network) and direct access to the South of England (Brighton, South Downs, Sussex).

This new service will complement Air France’s long-standing service to/from London-Heathrow, which the airline serves 6 times per day.

• Departures from Paris-CDG to London Gatwick at 9:20am (arrival 9:30am), and 3:45pm (arrival 3:55pm)

• Departures from London Gatwick to Paris-CDG at 10:30 (arrival 12.40pm) and 5:10pm (arrival 7:20pm).
