The flight from Paris to Monrovia marked the resumption of Air France’s flight to Liberia after it shut down flights to Liberia during the administration of former President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf in 2011. He added, “By connecting Monrovia to Paris and the rest of the world, Air France aims to support Liberia’s economic dynamism. Needless to say, that business opportunities with Liberia are great and that Air France will be there to back them.”According to him, Air France never stopped the decision to fly to Liberia but has always been finding the best means possible. Therefore, it would travel to Liberia via Bamako, Mali which has a very good traffic for Paris while Liberia has traffic for the United States. He furthered that the return of Air France will boost the tourism opportunities offered by the exceptional diversity of Liberia’s heritage as well as by the beauty of its natural sites.
