Air France launches new travel website

Europe’s biggest airline group, Air France has launched its new Travel by Air France website, a travel guide for all passionate, demanding and curious travelers. This exclusively digital destinations guide can be accessed online at http://travelby.airfrance.com/en/ and on all types of digital media (PC, tablet, smartphone).

The carrier stated that it has designed this guide not only as a source of inspiration for choosing the perfect destination, but also as a genuine planning and assistance tool at the destination. Travel by Air France is part of the company’s move upmarket strategy and enhances the editorial content of its booking website. 

For each of the initial 89 destinations on offer, the website lists a large selection of hidden restaurants, charming hotels, picturesque landmarks, compiled by locals who love their city (network of bloggers, e-influencers, journalists, etc.). Each month, two brand new destinations will be added to the website. 

This wealth of practical information is complemented by a travel log, allowing users to organize and download selected content, as well as the possibility of booking their plane ticket directly from the Travel by Air France website.

Already available in French and English, the website will be accessible in Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese and simplified Chinese before summer 2016.
