Wrong aircraft. Wrong Flight time. No crew. Its an endless list.
Perhaps they just don't fancy it.
There really is mate. Think we're on vol 2 now. :(
Actually just checked, AF have more flights from NCL than they do from the airport in the east. 😶
Yeah, they seem to do rather well from NCL. Do they have the likes of EZY or FR to BVA to contend with to Paris?

I flew CDG-DXB with AF last year in J (A359). It's a very good product. I would love to see them back to GLA

It would be as AF compliments KL offering round trips outbound via AMS and return via CDG or vice versa. Mind you I was surprised at MCO although given France is home to EuroDisney maybe not.

AF are a more premium airline than KLM. Both airlines offer some fantastic fares to Central and South America from here but I'd much rather fly AF than KLM

It was the first I had flown on AF and found them to be good. Having heard and read the horror stories about crew blanking passengers if they didn’t speak French, I was pleasantly surprised to find they immediately recognised if you couldn’t speak French and switched to English.

Agree about getting them back at GLA. The option of a direct connection at CDG rather than having to go via AMS or to EDI would be welcome.
