Air France

I upgraded from economy to business class on my CDG to LAX flight at the 30-hour check-in mark and paid about $742 per person for my wife and me through the Air France app, which felt like a great deal. Our original tickets were booked using Flying Blue miles plus some...

My family of four (two adults, one child, and an infant) booked an overnight transatlantic flight and then attempted to reserve seats. We were interested in the bassinet row and understood there would be an extra charge, so we were prepared to pay for it. However, the pricing...

I have been building up XP in Flying Blue and recently reached a new milestone. My app currently shows “259/300 to maintain” status, although it seems a bit delayed in updating. From what I understand, you can accumulate an additional 300 XP for the next period, but I want to...

Air France has released business class award availability from several North American cities to Paris (CDG), bookable through Flying Blue. With the current 25% transfer bonus from Amex Membership Rewards to Flying Blue, these tickets can effectively be booked from around 48K...

I have an upcoming flight in about 2.5 weeks from FCO to CDG, then connecting onward from CDG to ATL. The layover in CDG is around 2 hours. Should I be concerned about this connection time in Paris, or is this generally enough time to make the transfer smoothly?

During a recent KLM flight, I was reading the inflight magazine and noticed what appears to be an error in the aircraft information. The magazine states that the Boeing 737-800 was introduced in 2007, but that does not align with fleet history, as the aircraft type entered...

I'm looking at an Air France itinerary for 8 September, operated by IndiGo and Air France under a single Air France codeshare ticket. However, the connection at Delhi has me a bit concerned. Here's the situation: The entire journey is booked on a single ticket. I'll need to...

I’m booking my return journey on a single ticket: Rome (FCO) → Paris (CDG) at 06:05, arriving 08:25 (Air France, economy) Layover at CDG: 1 hour 50 minutes Paris (CDG) → Bengaluru (BLR) at 10:15 I’m unsure where Schengen exit immigration will be processed—whether it happens in...

I really like Air France because it seems to be one of the few airlines that allows free advance seat selection for bulkhead seats without requiring elite status. On most other airlines, I usually need Platinum or another elite tier to access bulkhead seating before check-in...

I was checking prices for an intercontinental business class flight and looked at the add-ons section. When I opened the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) option out of curiosity, it showed a very high XP amount. Is it actually possible to earn around 200 XP from a single flight...

Is $965 a good price to upgrade from economy to business class on CDG–MIA? If so, would you recommend seat 19L (back of the cabin, over the wings) for more privacy at the window, or seat 11H closer to the front? This is on the 777-300ER with the newer cabin layout.

There is a deal currently available that allows booking Delta business class flights from Europe to the United States starting at around 50,000 Chase Ultimate Rewards points when transferred to Flying Blue with a 20% bonus. The availability was found using Roame and includes...

A Paris appeals court has now found Air France and Airbus guilty of corporate manslaughter in connection with the 2009 crash of Air France Flight 447, reversing the earlier 2023 ruling that had cleared both companies. The court imposed the maximum corporate fine on each company,...

With my latest flight, I officially crossed the threshold to complete Platinum status again for this year, which should make it my 10th qualifying year. That involved a lot of flying over the years, so it feels good knowing I may finally be done worrying about rollovers,...

I recently flew a Delta codeshare operated by Air France on the CDG to RDU route. On the outbound trip I flew Delta One through BOS, but I was in economy on the return flight. I already went in with fairly low expectations for pre-landing meals in economy, but I still ended up...
