Air France, for instance, flies First Class to New York, Washington DC, Miami, Los Angeles and San Francisco. And yet, none of the three major US airlines have a first class cabin (except maybe AA to and from London) Of course, it's definitely not a first class service you would expect on a domestic flight I hope you will be able to fly First Class on a long-haul flight

"vous avez des patates"... le luxe selon air france. la honte. Pour 10 000 euros le billet on doit être irréprochable. Non les cabines crades ce n'est pas irréprochable. Non le langage et les chaussures éclatées du staff ce n'est pas irréprochable. Pas de service de pressing à bord pour la veste, un menu qui n'a pas évolué depuis des années, aucune intimité dans la configuration architecturale tout comme à bord d'ailleurs. Il faut arrêter de se gargariser et se demander comment atteindre l'excellence. Il faut soutenir les PNC qui font un très beau travail et revendre ces boeing qui ont 20 ans. Si les français sont aussi critiques avec air france c'est parce que ce sont nos impots qui payent cette compagnie, alors autant qu'elle soit au top.

This brings back good memories from my La Premiere trip in 2016 JFK-CDG-JNB-CDG-JFK. Back then, the La Premiere lounge did not have the private suites for those with long connections. However, AF paid for a day room at the Sheraton CDG and drove me in their sedans to/from the hotel.

An Air France La Première agent told me about the hotel rooms at Sheraton, whether you arrive in Paris or just in transit. That's the kind of details that matters and makes me think that Air France was always steps ahead about the ground service.

As far as I know, Singapore Airlines is one the few airlines to serve three brands of Champagne in First Class: Krug and Comtes Taittinger. The third one is changed every two or three months.

It’s a pity that Singapore Airlines withdraw the A380 from the Frankfurt to JFK Route. I did this round trip in 2022 with the A380 and the flight was on a completely different level. The A380 is so much quieter than the 777, especially in the upper deck, and it flies much more comfortably through turbulences. By the way, the business class seats in the A380 are more modern than in the A350 and 777, you can make them fully flat yourself by just pushing an electric button and the IFE screen is equipped with touchscreen. Another downgrade is the lounge at JFK. In 2022 we were allowed to use the Virgin Blockhouse which was so much better than the recent lounges you can access when flying SIA business class from JFK.😢😢😢😢

It's 800 euros per passenger and limited to 3 hours. I totally concur but I understand why they make the passenger pay. I already used the bedrooms in SWISS First class lounge gates E in Zurich. It's only a bedroom with a comfortable bed and a bathroom They are complimentary You cannot book in advance them and you can stay as long as you want If you arrive at the lounge and it's already occupied, you have to wait in the main room As for Air France, they are so luxurious that any passenger will definitely want to book one of them. It will then be on first come basis. Not first class The day we were travelling, all three of them were booked. That's why, we were invited to visit them before the guests arrive. I also think that the price is high. Some others don't Thank you for your comment

Merci pour votre commentaire. Si je devais me prononcer sur le produit sans parler du tarif, je dirais qu'Emirates: - offre un confort supérieur en cabine grâce à l'A380 - offre un service de limousine à Dubaï et pas Air France - les cabines de douche sont très appréciées par les passagers. Autrement, Air France La Première présente un bien meilleur produit. Maintenant, en termes de qualité-prix sur le seul segment Paris-Dubaï, pour 200 € plus cher, je choisis Air France La Première Bien sûr, tous les passagers La Première Air France ne débutent pas leur vol à Paris tout comme les Emirates First s'arrêtent à Dubaï Il fut un temps vers 2015 où, pour se faire une niche dans l'industrie, Emirates pratiquait des tarifs agressifs en Business et en First. Je me rappelle avoir vu des tarifs à moins de 5.000 € en First. D'ailleurs, c'est à cause de cette agressivité que toutes les compagnies qui desservaient l'Asie et l'Océanie étaient obligées de s'aligner. Aujourd'hui, il est rare de trouver des tarifs à moins de 8.000 € chez les Gulf Sisters (Emirates, Etihad, Qatar, ...) Et honnêtement, à ce tarif, je préfère des vols directs. J'avais une fois pris un vol de DXB à 4 heures du matin. Et bien, plus jamais
