The carrier will launch a new route to Dar Es Salam, Tanzania as a continuation of its service to Zanzibar (also located in Tanzania), it said in a statement released on November 28, 2022.

Air France will commence services to Dar Es Salam, Tanzania’s largest city, from June 12, 2023, operated three times weekly from its Paris-Charles de Gaulle hub by a Boeing 787-9, the airline added.

Dar Es Salam is also served by KLM with daily flights departing from Amsterdam.

From June 12, 2023, Air France will also increase to non-stop daily flights between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Nairobi Kenya, against its current six weekly flights. These flights will be operated by its Boeing 787-9 fleet.

The Paris-Charles de Gaulle-based airline also revealed that it will offer five non-stop weekly flights to Antananarivo (Madagascar) operated by its Airbus A350-900 fleet compared to its current four weekly flights.
