Air France to Launch New Services to Nashville and San Diego

Air France has unveiled the first new additions to its flight schedule for the summer 2027 season (April–October 2027). The airline plans to strengthen its presence in North America with the launch of two new routes to the United States.

Starting May 3, 2027, Air France will fly three times a week between Paris CDG and San Diego. California’s second-most populous city will be served on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays by Airbus A350-900.

On May 14, 2027, Nashville will join the airline’s network. Air France will operate three weekly flights between Paris CDG and the Tennessee capital, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, also by Airbus A350-900.

As a tribute to Dolly Parton, an iconic country music figure closely associated with Nashville, flights between Paris and the city will carry the flight number AF046—a nod to 1946, the year the artist was born.

Air France will be the only airline to operate nonstop flights from Paris to these two destinations, as well as the only airline to serve Nashville from continental Europe.
