Delta uses widebody aircraft on the route, but the specific variant and seat map can change. Check the operating aircraft shown for the actual flight rather than choosing a seat from a generic aircraft chart.

Is the Salt Lake City to Paris flight daily?
The airport’s current schedule shows a daily Delta flight: Monday through Sunday. That gives Paris more date flexibility than SLC’s London nonstop and makes it easier to keep a seven-night trip nonstop in both directions.
The schedule is still date-specific. Treat the daily pattern as the current service level, not a promise that every future travel season will remain daily. Confirm both the outbound and return dates before arranging hotels or onward travel around the nonstop.
The flight itself
The eastbound flight is overnight and arrives the next calendar day. That has two practical consequences: the hotel booking starts on the Paris arrival date, and an onward European connection leaves after a night with limited sleep. Compare arrival time, connection length, and hotel check-in—not only fare—when choosing an itinerary.
Fares and when to book
There is no route-specific history here that supports a guaranteed “best” booking window. Track the nonstop and one-stop alternatives for the dates that matter. If the final destination is outside Paris, compare a protected Air France connection at CDG with separate rail or air tickets; the cheapest individual segments do not necessarily create the safest trip.
Connecting onward via Air France
Delta and Air France sell coordinated itineraries through CDG to a much larger onward network. The important distinction is not whose flight number appears first; it is whether every flight is on one ticket.
Delta’s current partnership guidance says Delta and Air France use Terminal 2E at CDG, while Air France short-haul connections may depart from Terminals 2F or 2G. Use the terminal shown in the airline app on the travel day because operational changes can alter the transfer path.
With one ticket, the airline can confirm the official connection and is responsible for rebooking after a disruption. Bags are commonly tagged to the final destination, subject to the itinerary and customs rules. With separate tickets, assume responsibility for collecting bags when required, changing terminals, clearing any necessary formalities, and checking in again before the second airline’s cutoff. A short connection that is valid on one ticket can be reckless as a self-transfer.
What a CDG connection involves
An arrival from the United States reaches the Schengen Area at Paris. Travelers connecting to a Schengen destination normally complete border formalities at CDG; a connection to a non-Schengen destination follows a different path. CDG is a multi-terminal hub, and some transfers require shuttles or long walks. Follow the connection signs and use the terminal details in the airline app rather than walking toward baggage claim unless instructed to collect bags.
There is no single universal minimum connection time for CDG. It varies by terminal pair, destination, and ticket. Use the connection offered by the airline as the floor, then choose a longer one if traveling with children, limited mobility, separate tickets, or little tolerance for a missed onward flight.
CDG to central Paris
For travelers ending in Paris, RER B is the standard rail link. RATP’s current airport guidance shows trains from CDG toward Gare du Nord, Châtelet–Les Halles, and stations farther south. The airport rail ticket is separate from an ordinary central-Paris Metro ticket; RATP currently lists the Paris Region–Airports ticket for these airport rail trips.
Choose the transfer by the hotel’s location. RER B is often efficient for hotels near its stations or an easy Metro connection. A taxi or prearranged car is simpler with several people, heavy luggage, or a hotel requiring multiple changes. Check RER B works and service status on the travel date, especially for a late arrival or early return.
Frequently asked questions
Which Paris airport does Delta use from Salt Lake City?
Delta’s nonstop from Salt Lake City uses Paris–Charles de Gaulle Airport, whose airport code is CDG. It does not use Paris Orly (ORY).
Does Air France operate the nonstop from SLC to Paris?
Delta operates the current nonstop. Air France is Delta’s partner at CDG and may appear elsewhere in a one-ticket itinerary or as the operating airline for the onward connection.
Does the flight arrive in Paris on the same day?
No. The eastbound flight is overnight and reaches Paris on the next calendar day. Use the Paris arrival date—not the SLC departure date—when booking the first hotel night or an onward train.
Can an Air France connection be booked on the same ticket?
Yes. Delta and Air France sell coordinated itineraries through CDG. A single protected ticket is usually safer than separate tickets because the airline can rebook a missed connection after a covered disruption.
Before booking: a quick checklist
- Is Paris the destination, or is CDG only a connection?
- Are all onward flights on the same ticket?
- Which terminal does each flight use?
- If taking RER B, what is the final station and last-mile plan?
- Have passport and entry requirements been checked with official government sources for the traveler’s nationality and itinerary?
