For the first long haul segment of my exotic journey to Bangkok via Paris, I flew Air France’s Boeing 787-9 business class on the 6hr25min flight from Montreal (YUL) to Paris (CDG).
It had been many years since I had flown on one of Air France’s Dreamliners, so I was curious to see how the product is holding up. These planes have a solid hard product, though admittedly it’s not as cutting edge as on Air France’s newer aircraft, and I’d seek out those aircraft, all else being equal (the new A350 and 777 business class products are phenomenal).
Beyond that, though, this was the typical, excellent Air France transatlantic experience, with great food and drinks, very friendly service, and solid amenities. There’s not an airline that delivers more consistently across the Atlantic than Air France, in my opinion.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
