Delta to Replace Air France on Chicago – Paris CDG Route

Posted 13/06/2011

As part of an ongoing review of its transatlantic activities, SkyTeam member carriers are to switch capacity on some routes between France and the United States, including flights from Atlanta and Chicago to Paris CDG.  According to the latest scheduled data in the GDS, Delta Air Lines will replace Air France between Chicago and Paris CDG for the forthcoming winter schedule, a route the French national carrier has served for almost 60 years (it launched flights in October 1953).  Delta plans to use a Boeing 767-300ER on the five times weekly route, replacing an Air France A330-200.

Meanwhile, it appears that Delta will operate two flights a day on the Atlanta – Paris CDG route, with Air France offering a daily schedule rather than the two flights per day it had originally planned.

Schedule:

Chicago – Paris CDG
DL592 ORD1710 – 0835+1CDG 767 x13
DL593 CDG1035 – 1340ORD 767 x13
