  • If you've seen my Air France A380 Business Class video you know already that(in my opinion) Air France, compared to all other A380 operators, has the most disappointing A380 cabin. Now after I've flown in Economy Class I can tell you if it's just as disappointing or not! See more in the video!
    Here's the link to the A380 Business Class review:

    Very good video man. But I think the title is not fair. From the title, when I started watching it I was expecting a terrible flight. And I know this cabin, I've been on Air France's A380 a few years ago, and having flown on Qatar's whale, I do agree it's disappointing. But as you said yourself, "Great food, good legroom, nice crew [...] nothing to complain here!", so I think the video and Air France deserve a better title. But we all want little "clickbaity" titles to get more views so I know what it is haha
    But it's a terrific video, really. Loved it!

    To answer your question about the Aerotrain, the B/C concourse was built in the 1980's as a temporary concourse, and was always meant to be replaced by something more permanent. (you will notice on the outside it looks like a bunch of containers, and the inside is noticeably worse that the A/B concourse at Dulles). Though there are no immediate plans, eventually the system would be built out to the D concourse when that is rebuilt, and possibly a future E/F concourse, so it would be built in a loop. They presumably built it to the C concourse as it is the same physical building as D, so you can just walk from one end to the other. This leaves less modernization/rebuilding needed when they eventually do knock down the current concourse and build a new one.

    I would call this a very decent flight. The legroom, though not "generous", was better than some, and the food looked appetizing (by Economy standards). IFE seemed quite adequate.

    I have flown the A380 with Air France, Lufthansa and BA and hands down the most comfortable plane!, You don't get that claustrophobic feeling like you do on Single isle planes. I have also flown 747 and 787 but only the 777 comes close. I will miss the A380 😔

    Why Air France would have a 2 x 2 lay out on the 380 in Business Class is beyond me !! Economy looks comfortable enough !! I like the bathroom shots just to see if the crew have actually been in there to make sure they are clean !! Reasonable flight with decent economy food etc. Well done !!

    I flew on the A380 for the first time last summer, and didn't enjoy it at very much. I think it depends on the aircraft: too big, not cozy, it's even difficult to look outside the window because of the big gap between external and internal wall. Huge and impressive for sure, but I'm not that sad to see it start retiring soon (with production over)!

    • @nicoth.412
      @nicoth.412 4 года назад +1

      @@nicoth.412 Well I only did one return trip to the USA (two flights) on the AF A380, not much experience to judge. But on this occasion I felt like spending hours in a waiting room, a spacious yet anonymous place. I much more enjoy rides on the 777 for example, and I'm talking about economy class. The A380 is impressively quite though, I agree !

    Interesting report but your title is a bit misleading. One would almost expect the worst experience ever whereas AF's Economy Class aboard the A380 appears to be quite OK all in all. Kind of agree about AF's A380 Business Class, especially in comparison to their B777s but that's another story/video/title, right?
