Before we get to the charts, here are rules:

If a journey requires a connecting flight or stopover to reach the destination, miles are charged according to origin and destination. All prices are subject to taxes, fees and carrier imposed surcharges.”

Note that the number of miles required depends on whether you are flying on peak or off peak dates. For redemptions on Air France, those dates are as follows:

Also note that there are two different types of award chart – one for flight distances up to 1,749 miles, and a different set of charts for flights over that distance.
