The carrier will start flights from Paris CDG to Guadeloupe and Martinique in November, adding to the French Caribbean destinations already served from Orly airport.
The carrier will operate both routes weekly from November 4, in a move which will give UK passengers the choice of connecting at CDG for flights to these destinations, as neither are served directly from London.
The new routes will be served by B777-300ER aircraft configured for 422 economy seats (Voyageur), with 36 in premium economy (Alizé), and 14 in business (Affaires)
It means Air France will offer a total of 28 flights per week to and from the French Caribbean this winter. The new schedules from CDG are listed below.
