BOS-CDG non-stop?

Which airlines are serving this city pair non-stop? Is it only Air France and Delta? I thought American used to serve it, but can't find a non-stop flight.

Given Delta's financial situation, I'm leery of booking with them.

How is Air France these days? I had the impression that their cabin service was not very welcoming in the past. Is it better now?

I have had several longhaul flights with Air France and only really had one bad flight with them(Surly Crew) I would say that they are up there with BA,so have no hesitation in recommending them.

I can't vouch for Delta though, do they fly the route on a codeshare for Air France? may be worth checking.

Looking at it more closely, you are indeed correct -- it is a codeshare operated by Air France. So I guess my choices are Air France or spend an extra several hours connecting through JFK, London, or someplace even more sensible, like Detroit, Chicago, or DFW

On various carriers, I could change through various airports, some more convenient than others. But even the best would add a couple hours to an already long trip.

I've been searching on AA's web site and the only flights it brings up are connections -- through MIA, ORD, JFK, DFW, LHR, even LAX!

When I searched by flight number for gate information for 146 and 147, I got an error message ("The flight specified does not operate").

I thought AA used to fly BOS-CDG, but it appears to me that they've stopped doing so.

I saw this on expedia. What most likely has happened is that AA has sold their seat allocation while expedia still has open seats. Try there.

The other thing that may have happened is a date mis-match.

AA's BOS-CDG is not operating at present. It re-starts on 1 May (eastbound) and 2 May (westbound).
