Air France celebrates cherry blossom season
An ancient Japanese custom, Hanami is about enjoying the beauty of the cherry blossom every spring.

At the boarding gates, decorated with posters celebrating Hanami, the multicultural teams will be dressed in traditional costume and will hand out pink sweets to customers. A Furoshiki workshop and a photo session are also planned. On the jetway, agents forming a guard of honour will greet the customers before they board the plane.
The cabins will be decorated in the colours of Hanami and special announcements will be made in Japanese during the flight.
