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.
Yes then as others airlines you cover them up no? Do not find excuse for not repairing/covering/fixing no matter how you call it, these scratches. For the price you paid, you do not deserve these no matter who made them.
@@arnokfw If you want perfection buy your own Gulfstream. New ones are a mere 50-80 million. Or you can fly business class and exist in the real world where no matter how hard people try imperfection exists.
The best thing about the amenity kit: the pen! Most other airlines forget about that. That pen will be way more useful than any cosmetic product you may encounter...in my opinion, of course.
In Zurich airport on some check-in desks you can get free pan independently from your class. This is like the most useful thing on check-in, I am really using those pens, it is really useful. But the best amenity I had in air was Qatar Airways pajamas. It is still in use after 7 years. The quality is outstanding.
@@interstellaraviator6437 i can confirm that. mine are starting to degrade a little after years of use. gotta get a new one. trip is already booked for February 2024 :-)
I love AF. I flew from LAX to CDG few years ago, and it was one of the best flights I’ve ever taken. The cabin crew was extremely friendly, the meal was so good. Would definitely fly with them again.
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.
Hi Dan, you should restart your series of the aviation industry that you did during lockdown. The videos mostly did really well and I feel uploading them along with your trip reports will bring more variety to the channel and gain more views.
This makes me feel better about Air France having changed on me a couple of upcoming CDG layovers from only 1 hour to now being several hours. I had been feeling somewhat unhappy that they increased the length of my travel time, but from this review it sounds like what I had booked would have been stressful to make in time. Thanks, Dan!
I flat out love them. Their meals were very great, their seats were spacious in economy, and i had a blast during my 8 hour flight from Washington to Paris.
I am so glad I found your channel. You are so kind and very relaxing to watch. I suffer from PTSD and your videos calm my anxiety. I feel like I am right there with you and your partner. Your videos are more than you know. Annie
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!
Being the flag bearer, French government will never allow it to be small. But you do have a point, the size reduction you are suggesting would force them to address some of the blatant issues currently cropping their overall service. They have lots to improve.
Dude I'm happy to hear I'm not the only one with 6am flight anxiety. It is almost so bad I can't sleep the night before. I almost would rather take a redeye than a 6am flight Keep up cool videos!
KLM and Lufthansa always have early departs from Scandinavia to cater for their big guys long hauls out of Frankfurt, Munich or Amsterdam. You could always fly down the day before!
I’ve been flying AF for more than 30 years and it is always the same thing: between those 3 variables, Aircraft/Equipment, onboard service “choreography”/meals, and crew effectiveness/friendliness, they always only master 2 of the 3, rarely the 3 at the same time.
@@555125kevin are you crazy ? Ive been flying air France for every year of my life and the crew were always, always extremly friendly and polite, you might have done something that made them upset because Air France crew is amazing.
@@frenchcountryball3138 no, it happened on multiple Air France flights (back to back), u don't coincidentally skip handing out food to a whole row of minorites on back to back flights... Some of their flight attendants have a problem with certain complexions. That's why I fly other airlines where it's pretty much like religion for staff to treat every human with dignity.
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!
Yeah that was my experience, too, in the '90's, NYC-CDG, catle class. All the half-size baguettes from the basket that you wanted. And I went back to the galley and got another baguette from the basket when I wanted a snack. And plenty of red wine.
In those long gone days, in business class, the AF amenity kits were specific for male or female passengers. Mine had sample sizes of French cosmetics and I loved it.
Waited all night and day for this totally worth it. Brilliant review as I am going to Canada via France on Air France Next week in Business class. Lets me know what to expect. Thanks, Dan.
Love your vlog so much. The cinematic mode makes me feel like I'm watch a movie. This makes me really wanted to try and experience Air France. 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. :)
Poor guy. Always flying Business and NEVER try the greatest wines and champagnes that airlines offer. Those from Air France are absolutely AMAZING, specially the Sauvignon Blanc!!!
flew this route 2 weeks ago from CDG-SFO, actually really enjoyed the flight and although the business class was somewhat dated, the seats were extremely comfortable, and the food was actually pretty good, there is not much privacy but for the price it was very good and i’d happily fly them again!
oh the sassiness in these videos has increased tremendously since the last video I watched! I would be livid being served sorbet in an egg cup. on the positive side I noticed that the facial gave you a nice glow afterwards!
I agree with your conclusion. Flew with them on their 787-9 In Business and Premium Economy to and from Kenya a few months ago. However the price was low enough to still be worth it. As always , great video! 💯
Totally agree with your opinion on AF. Been on them twice -- last time was it. Cabin crew was very indifferent and without individual air vents the temperature was very hot. There was a lot of complaints to cabin crew but nothing was ever done.
I watch these videos as they are interesting in some ways and I learn new things that might help me aboard. 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.
thanks for another video! and those dragshow-sassy-vibe jokes are almost as good as the bb theory jokes.. makes me miss the 39 sponsor parts during the video(:
Can I just say:I am in awe of your videos and how simple you make them to understand. Your emotion and little jokes just exemplify the entertainment 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
AF business long haul is pretty good in my experience- crew are friendly, generous with passenger requests etc I think people pile in on CDG btw- it’s not the best major airport but there’s worse After long haul I’ve stayed several times in the good hotel within the terminals Hilton? Sheraton ? Can’t remember- and gone on next day refreshed
Hello! Just a quick note to say I enjoy your videos, this from a retired pilot (Continental Legacy then United merged). I also (sidebar) like to see your relationship with Oskar, it is nice. Wish you well.
I live in France and my mother is visiting. She is a very active 84 years old. When she comes to see me, she connects through CDG and then on to Bordeaux. She uses a wheelchair service or she would never make the connection.she has traveled the world and is not a fan of CDG!
I always enjoy flying Air France, and the times I had major problems (overbooking, long delay..) I was very well taken care of, very solid customer assistance.
My wife and I have just done 777-300 biz class to and from Dominican Republic from PCD. Before the pandemic I did CDG to Huston, and my memory tells me perhaps the Texas trip was better? 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.
@@NonstopDan the word that came to mind was “generic” and I said that to a colleague when I arrived. There was no character….I was impressed with the wifi much love Dan!
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.
Air France has the best business class product in Europe in my opinion with KLM not far behind. The others went downhill but used to be my preference. I guess they all change or adapt from time to time.
I LOVED Air France. Flew Paris-Detroit and they gave us champagne and left the drink card in the middle of the plane for passengers to serve themselves and mingle. Iconic.
Great review! Love the fox! But agree, gotta be the worse airport - scary for newbies. During CV BA had such amazing FC prices. Ahh but couldn't fly during those prices 😞 Now the prices are crazy high and can barely exchange a voucher for one-way PE. Oh and in my world, FC is a luxury and usually only affordable to Vegas 🙂
Hey Dan, it’s been a while since I last watched your videos (by a while I mean like 2 months) and you are getting better and better, you made laugh repeatedly 😂
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
Nice episode! I like your objective point of you.As a french,I tell you: an Air France flight really depends on the crew onboard, either 🤩 or 🥺. I am looking to see you soon onboard our 737 max business class in Flydubai. Happy landings !
Love their butter cheese selections and pear liquor Next time try it I’ve been with them four times so far, the staff always suffers from mode swings and almost all passengers are walking on eggshells Lots of time you can tell the staff don’t get along
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.
All together a fair and good review. The Business class product has gained on consistency , elegance , and food selection is creative French gastronomy is well represented
LOL I can't believe that fox was out there totally unfazed by the plane going past! This was really helpful, thanks. I'm considering AF business for a Paris trip I'm taking. Even though its not as fancy as Le Premier or a middle eastern line if my choice is this or an American legacy carrier across the atlantic, I'm taking this.
Thank you, Dan. I was underwhelmed by my trip with Air France to Morocco on our group trip (not mentioning my luggage fiasco). Luckily, Air France made up for my horrible experience on the way back to the US with a wonderful crew and service. I really appreciate your reviews!
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)
I was flying business with Air France 10 years ago, twice to NYC and back, once more to Singapore and back. Charles de Gaulle was already very bad. I observe that they have worsened. The seat were flat but with 5 degrees slope so I spent all the nights struggling not to end up against the bottom end. The wine and food were always very good. Since them I’ve managed to avoid their hub so unfortunately can’t confirm whether Air France itself has improved.

Swedish gangster! So thats where he is hiding. Call Interpol!
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

Nice episode! I like your objective point of you.As a french,I tell you: an Air France flight really depends on the crew onboard, either 🤩 or 🥺. I am looking to see you soon onboard our 737 max business class in Flydubai.
Happy landings !
I love all of your videos. I plan to travel like this one day soon. I’m taking notes.
What a super aggressive landing at Boston 😂
0:25 quirky Nonstop dan with the "Baston"
Love their butter cheese selections and pear liquor
Next time try it
I’ve been with them four times so far, the staff always suffers from mode swings and almost all passengers are walking on eggshells
Lots of time you can tell the staff don’t get along
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.
All together a fair and good review. The Business class product has gained on consistency , elegance , and food selection is creative
French gastronomy is well represented
LOL I can't believe that fox was out there totally unfazed by the plane going past! This was really helpful, thanks. I'm considering AF business for a Paris trip I'm taking. Even though its not as fancy as Le Premier or a middle eastern line if my choice is this or an American legacy carrier across the atlantic, I'm taking this.
Delta is good long haul.
That fox was pretty close to becoming fod.
Thank you, Dan. I was underwhelmed by my trip with Air France to Morocco on our group trip (not mentioning my luggage fiasco). Luckily, Air France made up for my horrible experience on the way back to the US with a wonderful crew and service. I really appreciate your reviews!
Yeah, that was BAD! Glad the way back was better. Great to hear from you James🙏
Air France has made a new and improved business class seat I think you should try it out and review that one!
great video dan, keep the content up!
What a great and honest review.
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)
Great video Nonstop Dan!!! Keep up the great work!!!
The worst for connection is Heathrow. Not saying is anywhere good, but there is worst.
we say le wifi and no la Wi-Fi 😂😂
I haven’t seen your vlogs in a while. So happy to that you shared your experience and I appreciate your critique. Regards to Oscar. Stay well. 👍🙏😎
Im just new here. Its been fun seeing your travel videos dan. Makes me feel like im traveling to. This covid sucks.
Dan it has been so long since you took a flight on the chariot of the student,
Ryanair. Each time I see you on their flights I laugh
I fly Ryanair all the time, I just don't make videos about it😂
I was flying business with Air France 10 years ago, twice to NYC and back, once more to Singapore and back. Charles de Gaulle was already very bad. I observe that they have worsened. The seat were flat but with 5 degrees slope so I spent all the nights struggling not to end up against the bottom end. The wine and food were always very good. Since them I’ve managed to avoid their hub so unfortunately can’t confirm whether Air France itself has improved.
