Air France has begun regular flights between Paris and Yerevan.
According to Russia's Itar-Tass news agency Airbus A-320 planes seating
159 business and economic class passengers will be used on the route.
Cities in Eastern and Central Europe are Air France's priority
destinations, Air France Senior Vice President for Europe and North
Africa, Etienne Rachou said.
"Our company tries to keep abreast with the development of our
countries' relations, contribute to higher economic and tourist
exchanges with Armenia, bearing in mind the large Armenian Diaspora
in France," he said.
Air France hopes that passengers from Los-Angeles, U.S., where the
largest Armenian Diaspora resides, will guarantee high seat occupancy
rates. The company offers many connection flights across the Atlantic
Ocean.
"This is a strong political message on the eve of the Year of Armenia
in France festival," French Ambassador to Armenia Henry Cuni said.
The launch of Air France flights to Yerevan "proves that Armenia is
of strategic interest to French investors," he said.
