[@Coolman1985]

In short Klm is looking the other way when it comes to boeing

[@neilburns8869]

Airbus and Embraer for Air France and KLM. I can understand the frustration with regards the Netherlands government at the moment but hopefully Geert Wilders won't be there too long.

Olympics + Air France = Nightmare summer ahead

Big big profits though

[@auntbarb5464]

I like Ben Smith, big loss for Air Canada when he left

[@philippesails4973]

An average European emits 10T co2 per person per year An American 21T In order to hold the global warming to 1.5 C, it needs to reduces to 2T The very same amount a single seat 💺, in economy class, produce on a single transatlantic segment.

Can you please interview Akbar Al Baker of Qatar Airways

[@ceressustainability2189]

He's left the CEO role, they've got a new wuss...

[@yusi5737]

The interviewer sounds like he’s drunk…

[@FirstLast-ve6jg]

SAS joining Sky team is a game changer. Transavia will do better than Lufthansa's disaster Eurowings.

[@simphiwentshalintshali-xx4iw]

The CEO wears sunglasses day and night, my gosh those eyes 👀

[@monchichis333]

does he know about the.... assassination???....

[@lunarlake1]

My biggest concern flying with Air France is not that they have Beoing airplanes but their pilots. Its one of those rare european/north american airlines that have a exeptionally high rate of extreme pilot error without aircraft malfuntion. We thought with Air France Flight 447 in 2009 they had learned their lesson but just recently with Air France Flight 011 in 2022 a near catastrophe like Flight 447 happend again when the pilots fought each other over the controles. 4 months later a fist fight in a A320 happend between Pilots. Wanna talk about the tailstrike in january of 2024? They have internal problems since years and should be investigated more. They lack in pilot training.

weird voice :/

[@Mabeylater293]

Air France has an even worse safety record than Boeing.

[@christianeduardo1]

Comparing the safety records of an airline like Air France to an aircraft manufacturer like Boeing is a bit like comparing apples to oranges. Air France is an airline that operates flights, while Boeing is a manufacturer that produces airplanes. Airline safety records can be influenced by various factors such as maintenance, training, and operational procedures, while Boeing's safety record would pertain more to the safety of its aircraft designs and manufacturing processes. It's important to note that both Air France and Boeing prioritize safety, and incidents involving either should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis rather than making broad comparisons.

​​@@christianeduardo1obviously Boeing doesn't care about safety anymore so your comment isn't really relevant. And the guy is absolutely right. BOTH Air France and Boeing have had big crashes
