COVID-19: Air France makes every effort to ensure the return of French and European nationals abroad.

 

Air France works closely with the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs and embassies to identify the repatriation needs of French and European nationals and to implement additional transport solutions at specific prices as quickly as possible. This concerns in particular Portugal, the Maghreb, Senegal, Madagascar, Tahiti, Argentina, Cuba, Costa Rica, Mexico, Peru, the Dominican Republic, Jordan, Thailand, the Maldives and even Vietnam. 

 

The details of the flights set up and the booking procedures will be communicated later.

 

The Air France teams are fully mobilized and are making every effort to assist French and European nationals during this difficult period. For example, since the announcement of restrictions on Morocco, more than 100 flights have already been implemented by Air France and Transavia to ensure returns.

 

Air France is working with French and international authorities to adapt its program in real time in light of the evolving situation and the new restrictions to which the airlines are subject. 

 

From March 23, 2020, maintaining service to several international destinations *, even considerably reduced, will also ensure the return of French and European nationals.

 

Air France strongly encourages all of its customers to anticipate their return now and to modify their reservation directly on airfrance.com, where all the support measures are regularly updated.

 

Finally, in order to allow a territorial service essential to the economic life of the country, Air France - in connection with the state services - will maintain the main part of its metropolitan network from Paris, as well as to Corsica (in partnership with Air Corsica) and Overseas **.
