Air France direct flights to Manila
The airline will connect the capital of the Philippines with Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport by operating three weekly flights
As of December 7, 2024, Air France will introduce a new direct flight between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Manila, the vibrant capital of the Philippines. The flights, operated with an Airbus A350-900 equipped with 34 seats in Business Class, 24 in Premium and 266 in Economy, will be available three times a week, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Flight times (local time):
► AF208: departure from Paris-Charles de Gaulle at 11:20 pm (Monday, Wednesday and Saturday), arriving in Manila at 7:30 pm the following day.
► AF209: departure from Manila at 21:50 (Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday), arriving at Paris-Charles de Gaulle at 05:50 the following day.
This flight schedule is subject to obtaining the necessary government authorizations.
Manila is already served by KLM, with four weekly flights from Amsterdam Schiphol (Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday). The collaboration between Air France and KLM will make it possible to offer a daily service to the destination.
Manila: the pearl of the Eastern Islands
Manila, the capital of the Philippines, is a fascinating combination of tradition and modernity, where modern skyscrapers coexist with the remnants of a rich colonial past, such as Fort Santiago and the Baroque church of San Agustin. The Philippines, with its 7,000 islands, offers spectacular landscapes, including turquoise lagoons, limestone cliffs, white sandy beaches and terraced rice paddies.
In addition to Manila, Air France will serve several destinations in Asia during the winter season, including Tokyo (Haneda), Osaka, Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Seoul, Bangkok, Singapore and Ho Chi Minh City.
Manila represents the fifth new destination introduced by Air France for the 2024-2025 winter season, along with new routes to Salvador de Bahia (Brazil), Kilimanjaro (Tanzania), Malé (Maldives) and Kiruna (Sweden).
