At 0:37 you displayed yourself as a half Swedish and half American, but you are wrong, because the word "American" is not a race but its a nationality. America is a place where of all races live, but it is highly controlled and dominated by Anglo-Saxon, Irish, German, Ashkenazi Jews, Black-Negro, and Hispanics of Central and South America due to their heavy population or heavy influence over American economy, politics, media, educational system, military industrial complex, police, and intelligence agencies. So, I strongly believe that your father is a White-American, but the question is that what his European ethnicity is. So, you might wanna ask your father about his European ethnicity. So, for example if your father is originally Irish then you should say 'I am half Swedish and half Irish-American.'

As a crew, those scratches are inevitable. And are mainly caused by passengers rather than the airline personnel. People dragging their bags in and out each day will surely cause scratches. 3 months is a long time considering the number of passengers and flights each day.

I feel as if Air France were smaller, they’d have a much more consistent product. My observation with airlines like AF and LH are that they want to offer an amazing product but are spread too thin operationally with soaring costs but still try to project an aspirational image despite all that. I could be totally wrong though. Still, AF doesn’t seem too bad.. I’m a FF with Air Canada and AF is more consistant with their lounges and onboard product. AC needs serious help with their lounge product. They literally serve the same food all the time and the amenities are a joke if we compare it to AF!

As someone who regularly uses Boston Logan, it is always nice seeing Boston Harbor when landing. One of the only downsides of Logan is that it is either a lot of walking post-security, or you have to exit security to take a bus to another terminal. It would be nice if they had a post-security shuttle.

I last flew Air France from New York to Paris in 1993…in coach of all places ha. And let me tell you what, it was an amazing experience never to be duplicated in these modern times. The food just kept coming the entire flight; it was crazy. We had smoked salmon with crème fraîche and all of the accoutrement, coq au vin, duck and foie gras…and they passed around this massive basket of bread and we could take as much as we wanted. Of course nothing offered to drink but wine and water. The wind never stopped flowing. Then came breakfast. I don’t even remember exactly what kind of sweets there were, but there was quite an array of patisserie. Insane. In coach!

The lounge is really gorgeous and I guess I can spend many hours in the lounge. By looking at the Google Earth map you provided, I would agree with you that CDG is probably one of the worst airports for transit. Getting to the wrong direction could cost how much time that passenger needs to bear, and the feeling of agitated, worried might miss the flight. Great video. :)

Flew AF twice from JFK to CDG, both in economy, and had great experiences on both. Seats were comfortable, food was enjoyable (that buttery salmon potato mousse entree was delicious), and the aperitif and digestif service a very nice touch. Crew were friendly although the 777 seemed more manageable to the crew than the 380 which was packed and all the people so couldn't sit still made work difficult for the crew.

hi - just for awareness, not all connecting "HOP" flights go into the truly awful way out terminal that you experienced. I often fly AF from NCL to CDG and onwards. NCL to CDG is operated by HOP but we always land at 2E. This is super convenient for me since many onward flights that I use are from 2E. For example, tomorrow I am flying to Dubai, my flight from NCL (AF1559) lands in 2E and Dubai (AF662) takes off from 2E. Brilliant 🙂 As you mentioned, if you are flying LaPremier it really doesn't matter where you land as a car is waiting to pick you up !

The seating appears to be almost identical except, on our return we were together in row 1 and had the partition down. However, the service was friendly, the food was good, all in all, I give AF seven and a half out of ten. Biggest bug bear, I'm 6'2" and I struggle to fully recline the seat without my feet getting stuck uncomfortably at the bottom of the box.

But as a normal guy that has flown economy all my life and still flies economy on short haul, I am still simply gobsmacked when I get on a long haul and have a biz class seat. Sleep is my religion, nothing else about biz class comes close. In 2 weeks I fly Auckland to Madrid thru Doha. I have flown a few 7,000+ mile flights, but that 9,000+ mile leg to Doha will be interesting.

I don't know if Air France still does this, but years back they would send me notices that I could purchase air miles with cash, getting tons of miles for a fraction of what a ticket would cost. I paid hundreds of dollars for these miles, adding them to my earned miles and waiting to use them for a year or so. However, I failed to notice one thing about the purchased miles... they expire after a short period if they aren't redeemed. Since these weren't miles I earned with flights, but paid for with cash, I didn't think they would expire. Thus, when I went to book that long desired first class flight to Paris using my miles, I had no miles. And when I called Air France, it was pretty much "tough luck" for not reading the fine print. I was out hundreds of dollars, not for air miles... but for air. Nada, zero, zilch. Air France lost me as a customer forever.

Boy if you hate long taxis you should avoid O'Hare (but as a native Chicagoan, please don't avoid O'Hare!). The southernmost and northernmost runways, 10R and 9L/27R, have 15-20 minute taxis to the terminal, depending on traffic load and weather. But then, as the FAA said, better a 20 minute taxi than a 60 minute holding pattern. O'Hare does tie with Atlanta for most annual ops (or at least it did before the great panic of 2020)

Paris airport are generally very old and very crowded, and this new lounge is horrible summer time as the air conditioning is always low and the sunshine make it unbearable

lol this video is hilarious, love your puns. And the cliché paris music makes me love my own airport even more (where i obviously never had a transfer). So I'm an Air France FF and I think that you should keep trying with AF. Give it time, they will warm up to you. But also every population expects different service. I'm French and I actually think the french FAs talk to me too much, from hitting on me to asking me what the names of my stuffed animals are lol.

I haven't watched your KZbin for over a year; but, I was curious about your take on AF. I have flown AF off and on over the past few decades, and never had a bad experience. I always had an average to excellent experience. I most recently flew AF in August IAD-CDG-DXB round trip. I agree that CDG is stereotypically French: quirky inefficient train and bus rides, escalators, and one-way doors between bizarrely named structures composing Terminal 2, yet lavish lounges with shower, Clarins products, massage spa (I have not yet tried the massage spa) tasty buffet, cafe au lait, and big silver ice bucket of half a dozen self-serve French Champagne. Also, I was sitting alone in one lounge corner by myself for a while, but the ground staff and their beverage trolley found me and insisted on pouring me more champage. I think I also did my CDG-IAD departure from that same 2M hall, because it seemed new, but also was shutting down before my late afternoon departure. I had to quickly make my champagne and Olympic souvenir hat purchase before the shop closed, and all other shops in the hall had already closed. It was like traveling in 2020-21 during lockdown, the way the hall was vacant and shuttered. I flew cattle class, but given my Elite status, got a choice seat, and I got served free-flowing champagne all that I wanted, from the kind attendant. I mention that I flew cattle class; but, to get to the cattle class cabin, I had to walk through the business class cabin. I felt cold walking through the business class cabin, because I felt like I was walking through an office cube farm of off-white/beige plastic walls and seats and screens, and I half expected to see my wretched supervisor pop out from one of the office cubicles (excuse me, business class pods) and demand that I correct and re-do my paperwork files. Actually, this beige office cube farm seems to be the trend on many airlines. No French flair there. I wouldn't pay extra for that. QR still has its old pre-cubicle business class and I did enjoy that earlier this year. I might enter your contest for that.

Paris Charles de Gaulle airport is a nightmare to transverse. I wouldn’t connect through it and London Heathrow. Pass through this summer from Washington DC on one of the earliest flights that morning around 5 am and it was chaotic and the miles lone walk to customs and confusion when you finally get there. If you blink you’ll missed the detour entrance to customs.

Yeah, it's like that. You have to keep asking ground staff for directions. And then the ground staff tells you that there's been a gate change and you have to go to another hall.

I want to add to my previous:. Like you, I have loved aviation since I was pre-teen. I soloed on my 16th birthday, got my PPL on my 17th...(etc...yada, yada)...my point? Have you ever considered training to be a pilot? BTW when 18 I got my Commercial, Multi-Engine, CFI and CFII. That's how I built up the time to get hired at an airline. Teaching others teaches YOU as well.

CDG worse than Frankfurt? Husband and I walked what felt like 2 miles at FRA to what we thought was going to be the gate to find that it was a bus stop...and then a 5 minute ride to Air Dolomite flight to the last leg to Firenze... Grazie! Don't think I will be doing much more international air travel, for so many reasons. Enjoy vicariously travelling with you! You and Oskar might consider expanding into VR travel. Aloha!

FRA is efficient. Staff ride bicycles. Most Europeans are accustomed to walking. You should have ordered a cart service. And of course many small destinations require a bus transfer that's no surprise.

Flying out of Paris you'll always get good French food. It's the caterers at the airports who makes it. You don't get French food flying out of USA. Not even with AF.

I literally just got the Venture Card and reached my spend minimum, I have like 90,000 miles thanks to that bonus, and just signed up for the Flying Blue for their Frequent Flyer program. I'm usually a star alliance boy. I hope on your Boston stay (or sometime soon) you try United's new service from BOS-LHR in special, specially refitted cabin 767-200ER. I'm trying this route (UA24/UA25) in a bit over a month, and may bid to upgrade to polaris for the return leg (UA25)
