Air France will launch its first nonstop flights between Nashville and Paris in May 2027, giving travelers a direct connection between Music City and the French capital.
The new route will begin May 14, 2027, with three weekly flights on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays between Nashville International Airport (BNA) and Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport. The flights will use Airbus A350-900 aircraft.
Flights from Paris will depart at 2:10 p.m. local time and arrive in Nashville at 4:40 p.m. The return flights will leave Nashville at 6:55 p.m. and arrive in Paris at 10:15 a.m. the following day.
In a nod to country music icon Dolly Parton, the Paris-to-Nashville route will use flight number AF046, referencing 1946, the year Parton was born.
Air France said it will be the only airline offering nonstop flights between Nashville and Paris, as well as the only airline serving Nashville from continental Europe.
Tickets are scheduled to go on sale Oct. 14, 2026, through Air France’s website.
