Flights will depart Paris CDG at 1615 local time, and arrive into Los Angeles at 1905 local time.
As for the return, this will then depart at 2110 local, and then arrive back into Paris at 1700 local the next day.
It’s Boeing 787 Dreamliners seat 56 passengers in Premium Economy, followed by 282 in Economy.

Norse Atlantic Airways could take a lot of market share off Air France on the Paris-Los Angeles route. Why? Pricing.
Looking at the pricing for Norse Atlantic Airways, Economy comes in at £360 one way, with Premium Economy coming in at £617.
As for Air France, the pricing differentiation is major. For the same day, this flight will set you back £1,468 for Economy, and nearly £3,000 for Premium Economy. And that is just one way.
Looking ahead, Norse Atlantic Airways may well have hit the market well, and by offering both classes at a cheaper price, it will be sure to make Air France sweat moving forward.
Overall, all eyes will be on Norse to see how this new route performs, and whether they can fill the seats quickly or not.
