Air France and Air C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire will implement a reciprocal codeshare agreement on the route between Paris-Charles-de-Gaulle and Abidjan-F\u00e9lix-Houphou\u00ebt-Boigny starting October 25, 2026.<\/p>\n
Air France will place its code on flights operated by the Ivorian airline, while Air C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire will market under its own code the flights operated by Air France on the same route. The carrier actually operating the flight must be indicated to the passenger at the time of booking or, at the latest, before boarding.<\/p>\n
The combination of the frequencies of the two carriers should expand the range of schedules between France and C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire. The agreement does not create a new flight on its own but allows each company to sell seats on the services operated by the other.<\/p>\n
The two companies announced the signing on October 16 in Ajaccio, on the sidelines of a meeting of the Association of French-speaking Air Carriers. Air France has been a shareholder and strategic partner of Air C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire since the establishment of the national airline in 2012.<\/p>\n
Laurent Loukou, CEO of Air C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, described this step as the beginning of a cooperation expected to extend to other destinations within the Air France network before the end of the first half of 2027.<\/p>\n
The sMiles and Flying Blue loyalty programs must also be integrated by the end of 2026. sMiles members will be able to earn miles on Air France flights between Abidjan and Paris, while Flying Blue members will be able to earn and use miles on flights operated by Air C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire on this route.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
