Route questions
Frequently asked
How many Air France flights run daily between Paris CDG and New York JFK?
Air France operates up to six daily flights between Paris CDG and New York JFK as of summer 2026: four operated by Air France's own Boeing 777-300ER, which carries La Première, and three additional flights operated by transatlantic partner Delta Air Lines under a codeshare agreement.
What aircraft flies the Air France business class seat with a sliding door on this route?
The newest Business seat, with a sliding door, is fitted to the Boeing 777-300ER and is now available on all Air France flights between CDG and JFK as of summer 2026. Some Delta-operated codeshare flights on the same route may fly a different cabin, which we confirm before quoting.
How long is the flight from Paris to New York on Air France?
The average scheduled flight time is around 8 hours 20 minutes, varying by direction and season — eastbound flights (JFK to CDG) typically run shorter than westbound due to jet stream winds. The distance is approximately 3,740 miles (6,020 km).
Is La Première available on the Paris–New York route?
Yes. La Première, Air France's first class cabin, is carried on the Boeing 777-300ER flights Air France operates itself on this route. It is not available on the Delta-operated codeshare flights that make up part of the daily schedule, so we confirm the operating carrier before quoting a La Première fare.
Does Air France fly to Newark as well as JFK from Paris?
Yes. Air France operates up to two daily flights between CDG and Newark Liberty International Airport, a schedule that was strengthened from one to two daily flights as of 1 June 2026. These flights are operated by the Airbus A350-900, which also carries the newer Business cabin.
Should I book the Air France flight or the Delta codeshare flight on this route?
It depends on the cabin and aircraft you want. If a specific Business seat or La Première matters to you, book the Air France-operated flight and confirm the aircraft; Delta's operated flights on the same route can fly a different business product. Both count as Flying Blue-eligible and both are ticketed the same way through Airlaza.
