Côte d’Ivoire : Grosse frayeur à l’atterrissage d’un vol Air France à l’aéroport d’Abidjan
An Air France flight made a strange landing at Abidjan's Félix Houphouët-Boigny Airport yesterday, Tuesday, February 3, 2026. Instead of coming to a stop at its usual parking position, the aircraft ended up on a secondary taxiway, causing considerable alarm among the passengers. According to Fraternité Matin, which reported the incident, there was more fear than actual harm.
A simple problem of ground positioning
No major damage was reported. All 283 passengers and 12 crew members disembarked safely, according to a statement from the Ivorian Ministry of Transport.
Note that this Air France flight AF702 had departed from Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport. It was scheduled to return there the same night, from February 3rd to 4th, but due to the incident, the trip was cancelled.
According to airport sources contacted by Fratmat, what happened was not an accident but a simple ground positioning problem.
