Air France to offers A380 service to Tokyo

From September 1 passengers flying Air France between Paris CDG and Tokyo Narita will be proficient to sample the A380 superjumbo.

Mind you, Air France will not be the initial European carrier to serve Tokyo with the A380. That honor goes to Germany’s Lufthansa which will inaugurate A380 flights between Europe and Japan next Friday when it commences a rival service out of Frankfurt into Tokyo Narita.

But Air France’s new service will be an admirable competitor especially, as with Lufthansa, its flights are timed to offer a large number of connecting possibilities through its Paris CDG hub.

The A380 will run Air France’s flight AF276 each Wednesday, Friday and Sunday from Paris CDG which arrives into Tokyo the next morning at 0810.

The carrier’s A380 accommodates utmost of 538 passengers. There are nine first class seats on the inferior deck and 80 business class seats upstairs.
