Say ‘Oui’ to Adventure: Air France Launches Nonstop Flights from Orlando to Paris in May 2025

Orlando, Fla. – Orlando International Airport (MCO) and Air France are thrilled to announce the launch of a new nonstop route connecting Central Florida to Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG), starting May 21, 2025.*  

This service marks Air France’s return to MCO, further elevating Orlando’s position as a premier global gateway and offering a seamless travel experience for Central Floridians and international visitors alike. Operating on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays, the Airbus A350-900, Air France’s new flagship aircraft, will provide a sophisticated travel experience across three cabins: Business, Premium, and Economy.  

“Our partnership with Air France reinforces MCO’s dedication to expanding global connectivity and creating value for our community,” said Kevin J. Thibault, CEO, Greater Orlando Aviation Authority, which operates Orlando International. “We are excited to welcome Air France back to Orlando, furthering our city’s appeal as an international destination and connecting our region with one of Europe’s most iconic cities.” 

 

“This new route highlights our commitment to strengthening connections between North America and France,” said Boaz Hulsman, Vice President of Commercial, North America at Air France-KLM. “We look forward to providing passengers from Florida a seamless, direct journey to Paris, or beyond, where they can enjoy the French elegance and award-winning service that Air France is known for.” 

 

This connection between the City of Lights and The City Beautiful grants access to Air France’s extensive global network, reaching over 170 destinations, and provides seamless travel options through SkyTeam Alliance partners such as Delta Air Lines, and Aeromexico.  

The return of this route is historic, marking Air France’s reestablishment at Orlando International Airport following its service which stopped in 2012. The support of our partners, Visit Orlando, Experience Kissimmee, and Orlando Economic Partnership, was pivotal in bringing back this service. 

Orlando will now become Air France’s 18th U.S. destination – joining a network that includes cities from New York to Seattle. For full details on the flight schedule, days of operation, and fare information, please visit airfrance.com.
