Compare totals with your bags added, because a dearer fare with bags included is often cheaper overall.

How do I survive the long-haul flight from Zanzibar to Paris?

Roughly 9.1 hours in the air is a genuine endurance event, and three choices decide most of it: pick your seat when booking (aisle for freedom, window for sleep), decide your sleep strategy before boarding rather than halfway through, and book your Paris transfer in advance so the arrival half of the journey is already solved when you land, tired.
