President Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema has secured a major aviation agreement during his state visit to France, solidifying a codeshare partnership between Air France and national carrier Fly Gabon. The deal, expected to be implemented by the end of the year, will allow Fly Gabon to sell tickets to Paris under its own code, offering passengers a broader network and more flexible travel options.
The President, accompanied by First Lady Zita Oligui Nguema, was received by French Culture Minister Catherine Pégard upon arrival. In a subsequent meeting with Air France CEO Anne Rigail, both sides reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening air links between Libreville and Paris.
This strategic partnership is a cornerstone of President Oligui Nguema’s vision to transform Libreville into a regional aviation hub. By improving connectivity, the agreement aims to stimulate tourism, boost trade, and attract investment. Travelers can expect increased competition on the route, potentially leading to more affordable fares.
The codeshare arrangement marks a significant step in Franco-Gabonese economic cooperation, underscoring the shared ambition to enhance mobility and integration between Central Africa and global markets.
