Via Hong Kong Best
Watchful · 69
Near a warning area · Moderate reroute options · Significant extra time

Two-hub route via Hong Kong. Adds journey time but Cathay's CDG–HKG service is among the best-quality long-haul products. Use when direct and IST are unavailable.

The catch

This route is significantly longer than a more direct path

Air France Direct
Watchful · 68
Near a warning area · Weak reroute options · Minimal extra time

Best for CDG→ICN. Air France direct via Central Asian corridor — no Gulf exposure. Slightly longer post-2022 than pre-Russia-rerouting polar path.

The catch

Very few backup paths if this route is disrupted

Via Istanbul
Watchful · 66
Near a warning area · Moderate reroute options · Moderate extra time

Reliable alternative via Turkish Airlines. CDG–IST is clean; IST–ICN uses the Central Asian corridor. Adds frequency depth when Air France is sold out.

The catch

Goes close to a warning area but does not cross it

How we score routes

We score each route based on whether it flies near or through warning areas, how much longer it is, and how many reroute options exist — based on official flight warnings.

Some routes aren't covered yet — if yours is missing, that's a gap, not an assessment.

Scores compare route options; they are not safety ratings. Always check with your airline before booking.
