"Traveling internationally over Thanksgiving is not traditional, but it can become a new tradition," says Paul Schneider, Air France Holidays Sales and Marketing Manager. "Thanksgiving weekend is always a very busy time in the US with malls packed with holiday shoppers and freeways jammed with families trying to return from visiting relatives. It makes sense to leave the stress behind and relax while experiencing the allure of Paris and Italy."

Air France Holidays offers this opportunity through its "Paris and Italy Vacation Packages". With these packages you have a choice of visiting Paris and an Italian city — Rome, Venice, or Florence. These travel packages start at $809 and include roundtrip airfare on Air France, hotel accommodations, daily breakfast, flights between cities, hotel taxes, service charges, and airline fuel surcharges.

The above rates are per person based on double occupancy.
