When this route gets cheap.
Fares bottom out in April around $487 and peak in October near $903, 85% dearer, across the 4 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 12.5 hours outbound, on a 7-night trip — ticketed under SAS, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $487 for 8,953 km each way, that works out to about $27 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $44 per 1,000 km that long-haul fares on this board typically run. Across the 16 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Paris, this fare ranks 2nd — 8% above the $450 from Los Angeles. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 40 routes of similar length we watch out of San Francisco, where the middle fare is $835. The best time to be in Paris: Apr–Jun · Sep–Oct.

Good to know
SF → PAR, answered.
Is $487 a good price for San Francisco to Paris?
Yes — the seasonal median for this route is around $905 round-trip. At $487 you're 46% below that, which we rate rare for this route.
What is the cheapest month to fly from San Francisco to Paris?
Across 4 months of cached-fare history, Apr comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Paris are Apr–Jun · Sep–Oct — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book SF → Paris?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 4 months of cached fares, Apr comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from San Francisco to Paris?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under SAS. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
