Air France Is Launching Direct Flights From Las Vegas to Paris—With Fares Starting at $443

It just got easier to fly from the Las Vegas lights to the City of Light.

Air France will launch new flights between Sin City and Paris next year, connecting the two major cities just in time for the summer travel season, the airline shared with Travel + Leisure. The new flights will take off starting April 15, 2026, and operate three times per week between Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) and Harry Reid International Airport (LAS). 

“This exciting new route will connect travelers from Las Vegas and the greater Southwest to Paris and our extensive global network across Europe and beyond,” Nicolas Henin, the general manager for North America at Air France-KLM, said in a statement shared with T+L.

When it launches, Las Vegas will become the 19th city in the United States for Air France. The airline will fly the route on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays on an Airbus A350-900 aircraft.

The direct flight will plan to depart Las Vegas at 5:50 p.m local time and arrive in Paris at 1:05 p.m. the following day. On the return trip, the aircraft will leave Paris at 1:40 p.m. local time and arrive in Las Vegas at 3:35 p.m.

The new route may be helpful for Delta Air Lines loyalists since both Delta and Air France are members of the SkyTeam alliance. Due to the partnership, travelers receive reciprocal loyalty benefits along with the opportunity to earn frequent flyer miles when flying on Air France.

Fares for the new route start at $443 one-way, according to a recent T+L search on Air France’s website.

In addition to the new flights, Air France’s partner KLM operates up to seven weekly flights between Las Vegas and Amsterdam.

The new connection comes as Las Vegas has been rolling out the welcome mat for travelers in an effort to boost tourism. As of August, just over 36.9 million travelers passed through the Las Vegas airport, a 4.5 percent decrease in passenger traffic compared to the same time period last year, according to airport statistics. A direct comparison is difficult, however, since Las Vegas welcomed the Super Bowl and other special events in 2024. 

Last month, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority launched one of its largest city-wide sales to entice tourists to return. While the main sale has ended, many casinos and hotels are still offering packages and promotions for visitors.
