A selection of programmes from Canal+ will be available on Air France flights following a new agreement.
From 1 May, passengers will be able to watch Canal+ Creation Originale series, must-see programmes, comedy shows, documentaries and children’s shows during their trip. The package also includes many movies.
Air France already devotes 30% of its entertainment offer to French productions, with its selection of films and TV series.
Air France customers will be able to enjoy episodes of recent or iconic Canal+ Creation Originale series during their flight, such as The Embers, Of Money and Blood and Versailles. Flagship shows such as En Aparté and comedy shows with Laura Felpin, Roman Frayssinet and many others will also be available. Captivating documentaries on travel, discovery and sport, as well as children’s content, will round off the variety of shows on offer.
From June 2025, the selection will be enhanced with content from Canal+ Africa, such as the series Niabla and the documentary series Enquête d’Afrique.
“We are proud to be showcasing Canal+ programmes on board our flights. Renowned throughout the world for their creativity, I’m sure they will appeal to our customers and promote French culture. They also enable us to offer more up-to-date content on board our flights,” said Fabien Pelous, SVP Customer Experience at Air France.
“We are delighted with this unique partnership, which will enable Air France passengers to enjoy an exclusive entertainment experience on board its long-haul flights. We are particularly honoured that Air France has chosen CANAL+ to create its first and only dedicated media space, reinforcing our commitment to promoting French, and soon African, audiovisual creation throughout the world,” added Christophe Pinard-Legry, CEO of Canal+ France in charge of Business activities.
In total, around 100 Canal+ programmes will be available at launch in French, subtitled and adapted for the deaf and hard of hearing. The selection will be renewed with 20 new titles every month.
