Air France Extends Seasonal Cape Town – Paris Route
Air France has extended its seasonal Cape Town – Paris service to 3 May 2026, citing exceptional demand. The daily Airbus A350 operation was initially set to end in late April 2026 and continues to see strong uptake from South African travellers to Europe and international visitors to Cape Town.
Flight AF0871 departs Cape Town at 08:50 and arrives in Paris at 19:20, with the return AF0890 leaving Paris at 18:30 and landing in Cape Town at 06:45 the following day. Wilson Tauro, Air France – KLM’s Country Manager for Southern Africa, said demand for the Paris – Cape Town route remains robust, underscoring sustained connectivity between Cape Town and Europe.
