Hello, I hope this is the right community to ask this. I have a flight in December from Valencia (Spain) to Tokyo with Air France. I have a layover in Paris CDG.

The flight from Valencia to Paris arrives at CDG at 08:20 in terminal 2G. And the flight from Paris to Tokyo departs at 9:30 in terminal 2E.

I have been researching and I believe that this is not enough time to make the connection. I contacted Air France and initially they told me that it was not enough time, and they offered me some more expensive alternative flights, which I am not satisfied with, as I would arrive a day later. When I told them that their website states that they are responsible for making the connection possible, they started to say that the connection is indeed possible. I also tried to cancel the flight from Valencia to Paris and take another airline that arrives earlier, but they say that cannot be done without paying, as it is part of the same itinerary.

I don’t have much experience flying, and I would like to know your opinion.

Thank you very much!

I decided to post this link because I personally didn't expect that to happen:

Regional carrier Voepass said in a statement sent to Reuters that the move was "necessary" as it now has one less aircraft in its fleet of ATR turboprops. Voepass said the measure was aimed at "minimizing potential delays and flight cancellations." Daily flights to nine locations will be interrupted at least until Oct. 26, when Voepass will reassess its network while planning for the next season, it said.

While the article does not specify how many planes they currently have, it seems that the number falls into the "not enough" category.

The pilot did not have time to eject and died.

A pusher tug punched a hole in the fuselage of an Aeroflot plane at Kazan airport.

According to the Base, the collision occurred on the morning of July 5. The plane was supposed to fly to Antalya. There were 118 people on board.

However, during towing, the locking bolt was sheared, causing the plane to collide with the tug.

The plane's fuselage was severely damaged. Passengers had to be sent to a sterile area to await their flight.
