Flights from France

From France, Singapore Airlines currently offers direct services from Paris to Singapore, our main hub in Southeast Asia. From Singapore, you can continue on to many other destinations on a single itinerary. Popular onward routes include cities across Southeast Asia such as Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, Denpasar Bali, Manila, and Hanoi; major North Asian hubs like Tokyo, Seoul, Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong; key Australian gateways such as Sydney and Brisbane; important centres in West Asia and Africa including Mumbai, Delhi, Dubai, Riyadh, Male, and Cape Town; and North American cities including New York, Los Angeles, and Seattle. Your direct flight from France to Singapore gives you access to this broader network via a smooth connection at Singapore Changi Airport.

Most journeys from France with Singapore Airlines are long-haul flights, typically ranging from around 13 hours to well over 20 hours of total travel time, often including a connection in Singapore. In the Americas, routes to New York, Los Angeles, and Seattle are among the longest, with overall travel times usually in the higher end of this range. In the Southwest Pacific, flights from France to Sydney and Brisbane are also long-haul, as you fly from Paris to Singapore and then onwards to Australia. Across West Asia and Africa, destinations such as Cape Town, Riyadh, Mumbai, Delhi, Bengaluru, Dhaka, and Male involve extended travel times, generally from the mid to upper end of the long-haul spectrum. Many North and Southeast Asian cities, including Tokyo, Seoul, Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Jakarta, and Denpasar Bali, are also considered long-haul from France, though on the shorter side compared with flights to Australia or North America.

From France, the shortest trips with Singapore Airlines are still long-distance, but some destinations offer relatively shorter total travel times within our network. Singapore is one of the faster options from Paris, with journey times in the lower end of the long-haul range; it is ideal during the generally drier and slightly cooler months around the start and end of the year if you prefer more comfortable city exploring. Nearby Southeast Asian cities such as Kuala Lumpur and Penang in Malaysia, and Jakarta in Indonesia, are also relatively shorter onward hops from Singapore, making them good choices in their dry or cooler seasons for food-focused city breaks and coastal getaways. Destinations like Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang in Vietnam work well during their drier months too, offering a mix of beaches and historic towns after your connection in Singapore. While these are not short-haul in distance from France, they are among the more time-efficient options within our network beyond Singapore itself.

On flights from France, Singapore Airlines offers a choice of First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class on selected routes and aircraft types. From Paris to Singapore, you can typically choose between these cabins depending on availability, giving you options from spacious Economy Class seating to the enhanced comfort and personal space of Premium Economy Class, and the added privacy, lie-flat seats, and elevated service in Business Class and First Class. Some onward routes from Singapore may offer a more limited selection of cabin classes, so cabin availability can vary by destination and aircraft.

From France, Singapore Airlines services are operated using a mix of widebody and narrowbody aircraft, depending on the route. Between Paris and Singapore, flights are generally operated by long-haul aircraft such as the Boeing 777-300ER and the Airbus A350-900, which offer First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy Class, and Economy Class. Onward connections from Singapore to various cities in Southeast Asia, North Asia, West Asia, and beyond may be operated by Boeing 777-300ER, Boeing 787-10, Airbus A350-900, or Boeing 737-8 MAX aircraft, with cabin configurations that vary by aircraft type and route.
