Air France will add nonstop Paris Charles de Gaulle services to Nashville and San Diego in May 2027, opening two new U.S. routes with Airbus A350-900 aircraft. The Nashville service is scheduled to start on 14 May and the San Diego route on 17 May, with both flights planned three times a week.
The expansion gives Air France its first regular scheduled service to either city and extends the carrier’s transatlantic network from its Paris hub. Both routes are expected to operate on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, providing direct access to CDG and onward connections across Europe.
The move also appears to reflect a broader reshaping of Air France’s U.S. network. The new services are set to coincide with the withdrawal of the airline’s Denver route, although the carrier has not presented Nashville and San Diego as direct replacements. For Nashville, the Paris link adds another long-haul European connection and strengthens the airport’s international profile. For San Diego, it creates a new regular nonstop path to one of Europe’s largest hub airports, improving options for both business and leisure traffic.
