To those addicted as well, with some proper Google Flights tweaking, I now easily get a list of F flights with AF. In May, I found the following destinations:
Tokyo
Los Angeles
Hong Kong
Miami
Mexico City
New York
Chicago
Johannesburg
Of which Mexico City, Tokyo, Johannesburg and Hong Kong are the most affordable ones <7000 CHF / < 7500 USD return for a direct flight, return. Likely cheaper if you add a few stops before or to buy for a nice tariff in business and go for the upgrade.

Butt I strongly doubt that it will resume as HK put in place very strict restrictions for arriving crews. Pending a miracle (especially in France) I doubt that they will be lifted in less than 2 months. KL operates with a stopover in BKK on both legs to avoid crew disembarking.
The US destinations might be safer if travel restrictions are relaxed at both ends.

AF plans to resume 3 weekly nonstops to HKG on 12 may. It has not been flying there for many months.

I booked a few CDG-HKG tickets in advance in January, all of them were canceled and re-booked to the AMS-BKK-HKG.
Of course, that's a minor inconvenience given that borders are closed anyway.

IIRC they tentatively re-scheduled the CDG-HKG route from January onwards, only to keep cancelling flights.

For those who are looking for very discounted F prices , LH and LX are running actually an amazing offer from AMS and CDG

That said, the fine prints are a bit scary "Further, tickets sold during this promotion will not be refunded if cancelled.". I'm not even sure thats legal as per EU rules...

I have used this periodic promotion once with wifey, and that is an outstanding deal in normal time if your dates are firm r in the near future.
We flew cheaper than any other deal in J from NCE.
But the risk is that you are repriced if you change dates before first segment is flown.
In case of flight cancellation by LX, the usual LX policy applies.
Wth covid uncertainties, I would not book such a promotion, except for a quick trip in the near future.

Given that the snippet came from the part dedicated to Covid-19 restrictions, I was wondering if they had found a way not to refund tickets in case of plane cancellation... But maybe they are just referring to the situation where a pax wants to cancel their ticket (in which case you are right, it simply means "non-refundable fare" in layman's terms).
The former being so frequent these days, one tends to forget that the latter is also a possibility.

And that little note, it's only if YOU cancel. When LH/LX cancels, you can move dates (for free, and this is perfect: I moved several flights from cheap dates to expensive dates) or get a full refund.
