Denver Airport Announces Daily United Nonstop Service to Paris

Denver International Airport is scheduled to gain a second airline option for nonstop flights to Paris next year. United Airlines plans to begin daily, year-round service between Denver and Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport on May 27, 2027.

The airport and airline announced the route on Aug. 25, 2026. For Denver travelers, the change would add another direct option on a major European city pair, while Air France continues to provide existing nonstop Denver-Paris service.

Daily flights are scheduled to begin May 27

United’s planned service would operate every day throughout the year on a 257-seat Boeing 787-9. The published flight times are:

• Denver departure: 8:35 p.m.
• Paris arrival: 1:35 p.m. the following day
• Paris departure: 3:45 p.m.
• Denver arrival: 5:50 p.m.

Those times and the aircraft assignment are scheduled details and could change before the route begins. The announcement does not confirm fares, ticket availability or a booking deadline.

United’s first Denver-Paris route

The planned flights would be United’s first service between Denver and Paris. They would not create the first nonstop connection between the two cities.

Air France inaugurated nonstop Denver-Paris service on July 2, 2021, according to Denver International Airport. The airport said Paris was Denver’s second-largest European market behind London, with nearly 250 daily passengers in demand during 2025.

United’s arrival would give passengers two airlines to compare on the same nonstop city pair. The announcement does not state whether the added capacity will affect fares or passenger demand.

Part of United’s planned 2027 Denver network

Denver International Airport said United is scheduled to offer 204 nonstop destinations from Denver in 2027, including 179 domestic destinations and 25 international markets across 14 countries. With Paris, United’s European network from Denver would include five destinations: Frankfurt, London Heathrow, Munich, Rome and Paris.

The route remains an announced future service, not an operating flight as of Aug. 28, 2026. Travelers considering Paris should check final schedules with United and Denver International Airport as the May 27, 2027, launch date approaches.
