Starting May 17, 2022 Air France will fly from Paris (CDG) to Quebec City (YQB), with three weekly flights on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

Flights will be operated by A330-200s equipped with the aircraft’s new travel cabins, with a capacity of 224 seats (36 in Business, 21 in Premium Economy and 167 in Economy).

Flight AF0353 departs Quebec City at 5 p.m., arriving at Paris-Charles de Gaulle the following day at 5:45 a.m.

On the return leg, flight AF0352 leaves Paris-Charles de Gaulle at 1:10 p.m., arriving in Quebec City at 2:40 p.m.

“We are very proud to introduce this new direct flight from Québec City to Paris, bringing the number of Air France Canada destinations to four,” says Catherine Guillemart-Dias, Vice-President and General Manager of Air France KLM Canada.

“We are delighted about this new service and the expanded opportunities it will foster for customers on both sides of the Atlantic to connect with family, cultural experiences and tourism options.”

This new nonstop route is in addition to Air France’s daily bus service linking Montreal’s Pierre Elliott Trudeau airport to Quebec City, available free of charge to all customers connecting from an Air France flight.

Air France currently links Paris-Charles de Gaulle to Montreal (Air France’s 2nd international destination with up to 4 daily flights), Toronto (up to 2 daily flights) and Vancouver (up to 1 daily flight) year-round.

This summer, Air France’s capacity to and from Canada will be 25% higher than before the pandemic, and the airline will be the leading European airline in terms of capacity between Europe and Canada.

Air France is currently and until Feb. 28, 2022 offering fully modifiable tickets for travel until June 30, 2022. Travellers can change their reservation free of charge, or request a refundable credit voucher if they no longer wish to travel. If the flight is cancelled by the airline, travellers have the choice of postponing their trip, requesting a full ticket refund or requesting a credit voucher, which is also refundable if not used.
