Air France and fashionwear company Lacoste are the official supporters of France’s athletes in Rio de Janeiro as the key equipment and kit provider for the French Olympic Team and inflight retail concessionaire Dutyfly Solutions is now joining forces with them.

 

The company reports today that it has taken the opportunity to support the team and celebrate the Olympic Games event by creating an exclusive offer within the airline’s inflight duty free offer – namely a full French supporter’s kit.

 

In a statement today, the company said: “For the entire month of August, Dutyfly is offering Air France passengers flying to Brazil the perfect French supporter’s kit! A Lacoste scarf (left) and a cap (below) in the colours of the French Olympic team are on sale, in addition to the airline’s usual inflight duty free goods.

 

“Moreover, for the purchase of two Lacoste products on board, supporters will be given a gift of a beautiful tote bag from the famous Lacoste crocodile brand.”

 

The retailer says this underlines its ability to offer a new experience for Air France’s passengers who are Rio-bound, patriotic – or both – as an event-led promotion and the ‘perfect relay for its customer airline partnerships’…

 

As reported on numerous occasions, Dutyfly Solutions is the inflight retail subsidiary of Lagardère Travel Retail and Servair.
