To better meet the needs of its customers, Air France is continuing to invest in the Ivory Coast by increasing the number of services from 7 to 10 weekly flights. Thanks to these 3 additional frequencies, Air France customers will be able to choose the departure time and services that best suit them.
This announcement is part of Air France’s development strategy to Africa. The Company is increasing services to Libreville with a daily flight as from 31 March. On the same day, it will be increasing capacity by 18% to Nigeria, by operating a larger capacity aircraft (Boeing 777-200) to Port Harcourt and Abuja.

Air France’s La Première cabin redefines the codes of exceptional service to satisfy customers who are sensitive to the slightest detail.

La Première is available on the daily flights AF 702 and AF 703 to and from Abidjan, operated by Boeing 777-300.
The Business class cabin offers a style of travel where the art of hospitality is the key. A unique experience with exclusive and personalized service. For even greater peace of mind, a few months ago Air France inaugurated the largest Business class lounge on its network at the opening of the new boarding satellite, hall M, at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Terminal 2E.
The Premium Economy cabin is located at the front of the aircraft, between the Business class and the Economy cabins, separated from both by a partition. A fixed-shell seat, the result of the latest technological innovations, offers 40% more space compared to the Economy cabin. Passengers benefit from an individual personalized space to work or relax in peace and quiet.
The Economy cabin offers quality meals, a wide choice of entertainment on demand on a 6.4-inch individual screen, a modern and comfortable 44-cm wide seat which reclines to 119° with a tilting seat, an adjustable headrest, an adjustable footrest, a tray table with rounded edges, a glasses holder and a cup holder. The retractable armrests even when the seatback is in a reclined position also make life easier for families on board.
