Air France and Alltheway extend baggage drop-off and delivery services to Paris and the Paris region
Air France and Alltheway introduce new baggage drop off
For almost a year, Air France passengers have been able to drop off and check in their baggage at locations in Paris and the Paris region, before arriving at the airport. Now, the company is also offering passengers a baggage delivery service to an address in the greater Paris region on arrival.
These optional services are provided in partnership with Alltheway, which provides a secure baggage storage and transfer service to and from the airport. Before or after their trip, passengers are able to travel light, without worrying about their bags.
With Alltheway, Air France now offers its passengers the option of having their checked baggage delivered on arrival of their flight at Paris-Charles de Gaulle (CDG). Alltheway directly collects their baggage from the baggage carrousel in the arrivals hall and delivers it to their home address or a location of their choice in Paris or the Paris region.
Alltheway agents take charge of baggage and ensure its security at every stage of the process while liaising with customs authorities, the press release said. Travellers can track their baggage along the way.
The baggage is delivered between six and 12 hours after the flight’s arrival, depending on the baggage pick-up location and the passenger’s preference. Costs are from 65 euros for two bags, then 15 euros per additional bag. This service is available on all flights operated by Air France on arrival at CDG.
Before the departure of their flight at Paris-Charles de Gaulle or Paris-Orly, Air France passengers can drop off and check in their baggage directly from home, at the address of their choice or at one of the baggage drop-off points available.
This summer, additional baggage drop-off points are now available in strategic, easy-to-access locations in Paris and the Paris region. This service is now available at the Gare du Nord train station, the Wojo coworking space near Saint Lazare train station and the New York hotel at Disneyland Paris.
These new drop-off points are in addition to those already available in six ACCOR hotels - Novotel Tour Eiffel, Mercure Tour Eiffel, Novotel Les Halles, Pullman La Défense, Pullman Bercy and Novotel Paris-Est. Baggage drop-off is also available at the main exhibition sites for major trade fairs such as Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, Villepinte Exhibition Centre and the Palais des Congrès Convention Centre.
Alltheway takes charge of baggage at the drop-off points and delivers them directly to the airline’s check-in desk at the airport. From their Alltheway personal account, travellers can track their baggage in real-time.
This service is available from 30 hours up to five hours before the flight’s departure, depending on the baggage drop-off location, and costs 25 euros for one bag, then 15 euros per additional bag. It is available on all flights operated by Air France on departure from Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Paris-Orly (ORY), excluding flights to Tel Aviv.
