Manila, the Pearl of the Orient Seas

The vibrant capital of the Philippines, Manila, offers a skillful blend of tradition and modernity. Sleek new skyscrapers rise above the remains of the country’s long colonial past, including Fort Santiago and the baroque San Agustin Church. This cultural melting pot has also produced a unique and renowned culinary tradition. Forming an archipelago of 7,000 islands, the Philippines also offers breathtaking scenery, turquoise lagoons, limestone cliffs, white sand beaches, and emerald rice terraces.

In addition to Manila, Air France will also serve the following Asian destinations this winter: Tokyo Haneda (up to 15 flights a week), Osaka (up to 3 flights a week), Beijing (up to 7 flights a week), Shanghai (up to 7 flights a week), Hong Kong (up to 7 flights a week), Seoul (up to 7 flights a week), Bangkok (up to 13 flights a week), Singapore (up to 10 flights a week), and Ho Chi Minh City (3 flights a week).

The introduction of Manila marks Air France’s 5^th new route for the winter 2024-2025 season. During this period, the airline will inaugurate new routes to Salvador de Bahia (Brazil, 3 flights a week from October 28, 2024), Kilimanjaro (Tanzania, 3 flights a week from November 18, as an extension from Zanzibar), Malé (Maldives, up to 2 flights a week from December 20) and Kiruna (Sweden, 1 flight a week from December 21).
