Estonian Air will operate the route six days a week, Sunday to Friday.

CCO of Estonian Air, Rauno Parras, said: “Establishing codeshare cooperation with one of the biggest airlines in the world is important for developing Estonian Air’s operations and executing its strategy.

“The cooperation of Estonian Air and Air France allows us to operate the flights on Tallinn–Paris route with high frequencies throughout the year and offer to our customers' good connectivity into and from Air France’s global network.”

SVP Europe & North Africa for Air France–KLM, Antoine Pussiau, added: “This agreement paves the way for new development opportunities on the Estonian market. Thanks to these six weekly flights, and the 2 existing daily flights in codeshare with KLM, customers will benefit from connections to 230 destinations worldwide from our two hubs in Paris Charles de Gaulle and Amsterdam Schiphol.”
