Dubai: The Abu Dhabi-Seychelles route operated by Etihad Airways and Air Seychelles is going twice daily as Air Seychelles launch direct flights to Paris.

From July, Air Seychelles will launch three weekly non-stop services to Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris, replacing the current twice weekly service via Abu Dhabi, the airline said in a statement.

The Abu Dhabi-Air Seychelles route will also be increased from 13 to 14 weekly services with Etihad and Air Seychelles each operating 7 flights, an Air Seychelles spokesman said by phone.
