This new route launch is part of Air France and KLM’s expansion policy on the African continent, with 4 new destinations in 2011: Freetown (Sierra Leone), Monrovia (Liberia), Bata (Equatorial Guinea) and Cape Town. These new destinations bring the number of cities in Africa served in winter 2011 to 38.
“After Air France started operating its A380 on the Johannesburg route in February 2010, the launch of non-stop flights to Cape Town illustrates Air France-KLM’s desire to continue its expansion policy in South Africa by offering customers 24 weekly services from its two hubs at Paris Charles de Gaulle and Amsterdam Schiphol to South Africa as from winter 2011” declared Pierre Descazeaux, SVP Air France-KLM Africa & Middle East.
