The cost was $105 per person, consisting of $80 in taxes/fees and a $25 partner handling fee that doesn't show up until you finalize the booking.

While I posted yesterday, I actually booked the award about a month ago. I just took a look at my same dates and flights and the taxes/fees are now $156 plus a $25 partner handling fee. As I recall, if you add a connection, the taxes/fees go up.

I must say, I was surprised by how much availability there was on AF. It looked like I could have picked any day I wanted for the months of March and April for either CDG or a connection elsewhere. Even after grabing 4 coach seats, there is still award availability on my flights.
