Where can I find the name of the airline company operating my flight?
The name of the airline you are traveling with is indicated on your ticket. If another company is operating your flight for Air France, its name is indicated when booking the flight. Simply click on "OP" below the flight number.
How many trips can I book at a time?
You can only book and pay for one trip at a time, which may include up to 6 flights legs. To book more trips, you must return to the "Book your trip" section of the home page.
How do I book a trip with multiple destinations?
Our website lets you book up to 6 travel legs per trip. You can also book a trip whose return flight arrives in a city other than your departure city. For example: you can book a Toulouse-Berlin departure flight with a Frankfurt-Paris return flight. Or a Paris-Tokyo departure flight with an Osaka-Paris return flight. Or even: Paris-Nice, Nice-London, London-Nantes, Brest-Paris. To book this type of trip online, click on the "Multi-destination itinerary" button on the booking form. For other types of itineraries, please contact your travel agency, an Air France ticket office, or our telephone sales service. To locate a ticket office or find our telephone sales number, please go to the "Contact us" section.
Do I have to pay for my ticket as soon as I make my booking?
If you need time to think when booking online (for a flight with an Air France flight number), you can opt for a Time to Think option. This option allows you to guarantee your booking and your rate for up to 3 days.* The price varies according to your destination and travel cabin. This service is free for babies under 2 years of age, whatever the flight and travel cabin. For more information about the Time to Think option, please consult the “Book a flight” section. To confirm your purchase, simply go to the “Your bookings” section and pay for your ticket before the end of the Time to Think period, without changing your original booking. If you do not confirm your purchase, your booking will be automatically canceled at the end of the Time to Think period. * The duration of the Time to Think period varies depending on your destination and the date of your booking.
Is there an additional fee according to the method of booking?
