World’s Best First Class? Air France La Premiere
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 окт 2021
- I flew Air France from Nice to Dubai. During online check-in I decided to upgrade my ticket from Business Class to La Premiere, which is Air France's very exclusive First Class.
I was escorted to the plane by an Air France agent in Nice. After a non-eventful one-hour domestic flight, I arrived at Paris CDG where I was met by my personal escort and a limo to the Air France Salon La Premiere (lounge). I enjoyed some of the great French food and drink there before I headed off for my next flight to Dubai.
The Air France Paris to Dubai flight was a B777-300/ER. I was fortunate enough to be the only passenger in La Premiere. Take a look at the understated luxury design and elegance of the cabin. Combine with great French gastronomy and La Premiere remains one of my favourite all-time First-Class experiences. During the video, I also reveal the best way to fly in La Premiere.

I would put Air France, among Emirates, Singapore Airlines, ANA and Lufthansa among my top 5 First Class experience. Have you traveled in Air France La Premiere? What are your thoughts? I hope you find the tip of getting a last-minute buy upgrade useful to fly on this product. OK before you think airline pay me to say great things, think twice! Which airline pays me to reveal their lowest upgrade secret to harm that First Class revenue? :)
Hi From Israel
Your skin looks so good man.
Hello sir Sam watching from Phillippines
Not Qatae Airways?
I Haven't but i am going to
We live in a beautiful world that only a few enjoy, the others have to watch it on RUclips
It's good we know it now how the rich and the poor are classified
The best way to create and maintain wealth is by investing, investments saves one from not working all through their life time expecting to retire and enjoy their labor at the age of 60-62 as the case maybe.
And my question is, will you be physically fit to enjoy the fruits of your working years?.
@Alina elizaveta poor management skills have been a major problem for investors, especially beginners, therefore it is advisable to seek professional help/advice. investing with the help of experts who can take charge of your investment in order to achieve financial independence and stability.
@Lance Rivera I invest in the crypto space with Mr Stephen Briggs , he handles my investment due to my tight schedule and he's doing great a job with my investment.
My first investment with Mr Briggs gave me profit of over 24,000 US dollar and ever since then he has never failed to deliver and I can even say he’s the most sincere broker I have known
Being last to board makes so much sense. Surprised other airlines haven’t taken notice (at least for long haul flights) why would you wait to sit and wait 30+ mins when you could have more time in the lounge
When you are disabled(like me) in CDG they bring us in with a special hydraulic lift/carrier before everyone. It's quite a weird experience lol
@@_Julie_Bee That's what I call good service. It happens in many airports around the world, though.
@@carlosrivera3260 I was mainly explaining the process in CDG, where embarking is done on the tarmac and not thru a gate ☺️
I missed my international flight like this once
I hope I’m not the only one that thinks that Sam brings the community of kindness together to celebrate him, his success, and the love of aviation.
'Calories don't count when you're travelling and having fun' are words to live by 😍 great video Sam!
That is sooooo true man!
That's why I travel once every couple of years to stay on a diet. Wait!. I forgot they got away from peanuts!. .lol
And you can see, he is travelling a lot …
Yess
Amen live your best life you got live alittle and it's a fact all that was zero calories.;)
6:27 Crew member welcoming a first class customer with his amrs folded, it's so french and so Air France ! I love it !
Well, this is the pilot
Thank you Sam, As french and former frequent flyer with Air France wings, I noticed the permanence of excellence and french discreet elegance are still here. I really miss my flights on asian routes.
From now on when nostalgia will visit me I will fly with you because your channel is really of high quality !
Cheers
I like the classic luxury design without the gold and the no-frills, no-fuss retro style of that first class cabin. It looks far more relaxing than many of its multiple screen shiny competitors from UAE or Asia.
Air France La Premiere is definetely one of the best first class. I love the interior design especially the curtain and the lamp. It feels soft like in our comfort bedroom.
Fantastic, glad you agree!
This just shows that many times simplicity goes far...
No i work for Air France but Air France have not the best
as italian i shall admit that's gold, j'adore D...no wait that's the add! Well, ben fatto...here you win.
Sam, you are the gold standard for aviation reviews. I love your down to earth and friendly approach and how you get people around you involved in the story. Keep them coming :)
Lol he's so robotic and annoying. Imagine having to spend time with this guy. He wouldn't know what you were on about 90% of the time
The roboticness is probably from the vaccines...
@@marioluigi9599damn what’s wrong with your brain? Jealousy? LOL
I flew coach on Air France from Paris to Detroit a few years ago and it was the best coach flight I've ever taken. Two excellent meals, great flight attendants.
"Understated luxury and design" Yes, the French do have great taste. Very classy. I flew on AF 747 (economy) from Montreal to Paris, and from Paris to Toronto, and they are still very memorable flights, many years later. I am envious, Sam. Thank you for another beautiful video 👍
the funniest part some years before he went in alitalia(actually itaspa)...pretty fun, you know...know i wanna know the winner(cof cof us) 😂 but he shall try the whole pack now(from trains to airplane, here the rivarly is strong)
by the way i've got the luxury as them to be used to this great comfort(both we got this for cheap price)...trust me is the first thing you miss for example in USA.
for us great food is cheap and we eat it daily, we both live in amazing lands...we admire each other, that's it.
I mean did you ever used an our, we share them literally to each other, high speed train...we got the faster...we belong each other in the end .

As we know all , the majority thing they use in France they copied it from Italy and they made marketing of their way
What I love with Air France is their staff, they are very professionnel, very friendly, an authentic smile, know how to deal with the problems… Air France you are the BEST 👍👍👍 ❤️🇫🇷❤️
Another great video Sam. Amazing experience. And being last to board is very important so you can fully enjoy the lounge. And french cuisine is always perfect.
I'm so glad to see that you are well and back in action on our behalf! Thank you for all you do.
I love the cabin decor. The gold and bling of other airlines may be to be the taste of some markets, but not mine.
A friend has decorated her bedroom in gold, red cream and black and says knowing how little to use is the art.
Real class doesn't shine!
Yeah not into the gold stuff either. Well done elegant Minimalism to me is where its at!
Air France has a long lasting history in air transport and I can remember my first flights from Sao Paulo to Paris in the 60' on board a 707. Always appreciated the smile and service of the crew, even in domestic flights. Great video Sam and thank for the upgrade!
Also they were one of the first to offer Hagen-Dazs at Economy galley after dinner service during Rio-Paris route!

@@navin6615 Amen, but what does an airline have to do with religion?
The cabin interior and service throughout speaks of elegance, class and being timeless. Well done Air France!
Thank you for showing us how air travel can be. It is easy to take what you are given and be disappointed but true luxury experiences are out there.
I have to say that whole experience looked amazing but huge merits to that ground staff member with you in CDG, she was very polite and genuinely friendly which is something you don't often find among premium cabins
Don't expect the same with others, look who was travelling here...haha...

Sam, thank you for taking us along for the experience. Top of my bucket list.
I worked for Air France a couple of years ago and really enjoyed working for the team, really dedicated people ❤️
Looks amazing, very simple, understated and elegant. Vive La France!
Sam, I used to work as cabin crew but I really appreicate that you always give a warm video with cabin crew during the trip. It's a hard year for everyone, nice to see the crews give a lovely smile as usual , thanks for sam always interacting with crew which gives me a sweet moment during old days!!😃😃😃
Just love all the signed logo dishware, even the little lamp. And the presentation of the food what luxury
Thanks so much for this review Sam! I always wondered about Premiere experience after flying business class on Air France- food it over the top and good to know about the possibility of upgrading on line after business class purchase (very comparable to upgrade from premium economy to business). Love your channel !! 🙏
Even I'm not travelling, It's just pure satisfiment to watch this guy travel. Good job Sam
Thank you very much, Sam, for taking us in the sky again by sharing your great video with us.
Wow, I didn’t realise Air France had such an amazing 1st Class service! Stunningly good, fantastic employees. Love the curtain, simple but perfect. Puts the “World’s Favourite Airline” in my country to shame!
Yes but in coach service is terrible. If you want good service from Air France the best way is La Premiere
@@musicalmelodies3595 well... Brexshiters knows that! Anyway we have taste and class.... You still have Farage, Rees-Moog, Cummings and BA...
@@felixlafleurie7856 yeah and invented perfume because you don't shower and smell lol
@@TurkCooks say the turk who eats with his hands...
I love the clean and classic design. Not too flashy or complicated with excellent food and comforts.
Just watching this absolutely makes me want to fly on air France in premiere class! What an absolutely stunning product!
Me too
Where are you located
After watching your all First Class vids this is the one that my heart went on♥️♥️♥️
The animation of takeoff and landing at Charles De Gaulle with the 777 and A320 is just cool.
World’s best youtuber? Sam Chui. 😏😍
Oh wow. The real Air France is here,
This video was amazing, Hospitality of Air France is awesome
The flight attendance's England though. 😂
Hey AirFrance, how about doing like Scandinavian Airways and getting rid of these stupid fucking masks mandate on your flights ?
There's no way I'm spending 5 hours in a flying operating room where I can't even see the stewardesses faces.
Hello
So happy to see this! I was an Air France La Premiere agent shortly before I gave birth to my only son. La Premiere ground staff (like the Tunisian agent who escorted you) undergo rigorous training to meet Air France standards of service. ☺️
Cher Sam. Thanks for everything ! With you it is like to go on vacations... and dreaming ! Thank you toda raba merci !
Love this vlog. I was screen grabbing the meal plates for layout ideas. Yum and so beautifully presented.
Quelle belle vidéo ! Bravo Sam 🙏🏻😊 c’est toujours un plaisir de voir les yeux pétillants de nos passagers à bord ! 🤩🤩
I love how Sam just randomly adds a consonant to words sometimes… it’s too cute.
Hi Sam, thank you for all the awesome videos! I always enjoy watching the reviews of the airlines! Well done 👍🏻
Thank you Sam for this excursion. Air France gets my nod.
Amazing. Love the food, champagne, wine, care of service and people.
Sam, this is a nice experience and thanks for sharing! Also thanks for the tip to make LA Premier more attainable.
Really fantastic review Sam! Such a classy and sophisticated First Class experience! Would love to try it some day for myself!
That’s by far the best first class I’ve seen. Wish I had flew Air France last time I went to Europe.
This is a truly amazing airline!
I’m glad that I discovered Sam Chui and his videos, the films have showcased first class flights on Etihad, Emirates, Swiss air, Air France, their first class terminals and what they offer, massage rooms, cigar rooms, dining halls, ice cream bars, champagne and spirits...etc Great job Sam ❤ look forward to seeing you on a flight❤
As a new French citizen I’m very proud of our national airline! They have worked very hard to improve the quality of their service.
Bienvenue! :)
Hello ! Where were you born if I may ask ?
@@albanmonnier8404 Hi, born in the UK
@@theflyingfrog Okay well.. welcome to France !
@@albanmonnier8404 merci !
I have been fortunate enough to fly La Premiere twice from Paris to NY. I caught specials both times and payed LESS that business class. Only thing missed here (since he didn’t originate in Paris and likely not a long enough layover) is the escort upon arrival in CDG thru security ti the lounge, the complimentary facial or massage, and the private jet bridge on the A380 into the La Premiere cabin. Truly one of the most amazing flying experience ever. And I had a few minor sked changes on my journey and Air France truly went above and beyond to compensate me for my “inconvenience”. Seriously one of the best flying experiences ever!
How did you manage to get the specials?
Sam you deserve to fly the best airlines in the best seats you are a inspiration to everyone who loves flying
Welcome back Sam！ Travelling is really fun！ Take care always！ 😍🥰❤
I think it's probably a close tie between Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Etihad, and Air France. All offer incredible First Class experiences.
The world top, each in their own style ... and that's what is good 👌
I agree! TOP
are you frigging kidding me? the hospitality is bad as fuck, you see the Tunisian woman talked too much even dare to say no to Sam, a VIP. The stewardesses also look so uncomfortable treating him awkwardly
@@erwinsaputra3645 That my friend, isn't disrespect, but french culture. If you genuinely think someone is mistaken and even if you work in service you will point it out, because it is considered rude to leave someone in the wrong.
On the awkwardness level, the American guy filming himself and speaking to a camera can feel uncomfortable and rude to the people working for you as you're ignoring their presence to speak to an inanimate object. Filming yourself and having a big and loud sense of self is also not very well perceived.
Try to understand things from a different perspective when tackling a different culture.
You’ve left off Delta as well
OMG I almost thought I was the passenger as I go to Nice Airport 4-6 times a year haha
Thanks for this awesome video
My one experience with CDG, I was flying coach on Air France and changing planes. I was very, very heavy at the time, and the staff were so eager to help me make my transfer in time, and so ridiculously helpful!
Just added this to my bucket list. That’s how you treat your guests
Great review Sam. You are so easy to watch. I really really love the understated First Class cabin of Air France. Less is more. No tacky gold bling.
Great experience Sam. Would love to travel first class like I used to 25 years ago! More hard work needed here! Just make sure to edit out the parts where you are chewing and talking at the same time. Otherwise well done!!!!
Absolutely stunning, I need to have this experience and hopefully, in the not-too-distant future.
Chauffeurs are often men. So what wrong with noticing that it's a woman for a change?
People have become extra sensitive 🤦🏿. This is working against feminism itself
Ah Sam I love ur videos we can not live these moments but you can show us how it feels like keep up the good work ❤️
So chic and sharp! Nothing overdone. Love the red gloves on the Tunisian staff member.
Love the understated elegance and minimalist design aboard Air France’s La Premiere class 🇫🇷. It reminds me of Eero Saarinen‘s design of the TWA terminal in JFK.
We have a good architect in France (:
My sister has always been a straight Air France flyer. She had persuaded me to try out their first class suite and I did not regret flying with them. Their cabin crew are sooo nice and they treat you like you are of royalty😍❤️
did you get any special service or happy ending?
Try working in a french supermarket as a retail clerk, and see how people treat you. This country doesn’t respect people, they are only friendly to you because you are spending thousands with them. Or try going to a french government office in Paris for paperwork and see how they treat people
@@alexandertraveler510 Yeah, I get that. I actually encountered some rude people during my one month stay in Paris. But during my stay in Lourdes I met lots of nice people I guess. But I don't think they are much rude people as to where I live here in LA.
@@Virus1123 Well I didn't get that much of a special service as Sam experienced. Just a regular Business class service but better than most other airlines like Delta and Turkish airlines
you are aware of what they did to their royalty, right?
Cool.. the package includes also a greeting by the pilot. He literally leaves his preflight procedures, leaves his cockpit in order to say hello to you! I wouldn't mind more for that!
I really enjoy your videos Sam. Thanks for doing this.
Love the vid Sam keep up the great work
I'm happy that the first class of Air France is among Sam favourite because I'm French and I'm happy that this airline is going well in the pandemic!
Perte net de 7 milliards d'Euros en 2020, 6000 emplois menacés dans les prochaines années, "going well" n'est pas vraiment le terme adéquat...
@@Bildam1 C'est vrai, mais la compagnie a eu un peu d'aide du gouvernement
@@inter_a Toutes les compagnies aériennes ont reçu de l'aide !
Air France is doing the best they can do. I kept flying with them during pandemic and they keep their standard. They did not try to cut corners nor lowered their service. Instead they modernised their fleet to save on fuel (sold their A380s and bought A350s and B787s) and saved money by closing pos in high real estate areas. They did what other airlines should have been doing.
Sam you are awesome !!! I love your presentations are just the best !!!
So posh, so extravagant. I loved it!
Wow, this is Amazing!!!
I thought the La Premiere lounge at CDG was incredible. Food was amazing. I had the same pasta dish as you. I love that they have a car that directly takes F pax directly from airplane to the lounge. I remember there was a metal screening machine before you take an elevator up to the lounge. I was the only person so there was no wait time (maybe BA F should copy La Premiere. This is how first class is done). Very civilized! While I like Emirate A380 better in terms of sleeping quality as well as shower, La Premiere lounge experience is infinitely better than Emirates' or Etihad's.
I love La Premiere ❤. Never been disappointed!
Hello, Sam
thank you for your travel videos which made me feel new experiences. I am always watching your videos.
This experience looks truly amazing.
this is incredible...I would love to see how they prepare those fantastic meals....it's almost like magic how they are able to do this in the restricted space of an aircraft
Have flown Air France for years, especially the old flight from Paris to Montreal and then continuing on another hour to Chicago...great way to get to Chicago from Paris and always great food in Business Class. Flew first several times when upgraded, fabuous!
I love all of the background music you used in your videos Sam.
Family will be flying on AF Biz direct flight from CDG - LAX. Sam’s tip how to upgrade to La Premier makes me rethink our return flight home. 🤔 Experiencing the AF luxury sounds interesting ☺️
Great work Sam, you always extend the concept of the air travel; the travel is the destination. I still love your first video in 2007, Singapore Airlines, for a 40 second clip.
Thank you Ryori. I didn't know that time I'd became a RUclipsr lol. Thanks for remember that.
Showing nothing much but coconut and ice cream on dry ice. But an aviation legend was born!
Best idea to uv curtains to solid dividers which feels like cage in the nam of privacy. Every thing was appealing n well designed.
Thanks to Air France Le Premiere! 🌷
Love you Sam, what a joy to see these flights!
LOOOOVE the 80's soundtrack to this! ;)
I was wondering when this video was coming online. I was waiting in the same terminal for my flight to Geneva. I saw you recording at the terminal in Nice
I love Air France! First Class experience exceeds USA airlines in every category. CDG was easy with assistance. Great food and the sleep was so helpful- Overnight from Houston to Paris.
Wow! That looked special for sure! 😯
"It's a mirror, but it's also a TV" LOL!!! She was so polite in the way she corrected him
Anyone else think they clicked on the wrong video when they saw him sitting in economy on the first leg from Nice to Paris? Lol...Almost got us there, Sam!!
I was prepared to be disappointed...
La première d' Air France is really amazing....the most luxury airline from the beginning in 1933!
Hi
I have been following your blog for a long time. I am French. ok the premiere of Air France is awesome. but you did not feel a little bit alone !! it's too much
but many thanks for your blogs. Guy
Music is perfect matched my mood and I so very much enjoyed the video
Gorgeous-looking experience. Also if you start your own airline, you should call it AirChui. I think it sounds great.
That service is definitely something I would love to try one day lol
The Company knows someone with 2.7 million followers is coming onboard and most of those followers are aviation fans. Its almost like an inspection at school or a restaurant having a hygiene check
@@MrTwat144 They know every La Premiere passenger before coming on board, taking care of them. That's first class reality. Know your passenger before the flight.
La Premiere does seem like an amazing service, ignoring the enormous price tag attached to it of course
@@MrTwat144 Perhaps if it were economy or business class, but this was first class. Companies don't and shouldn't need to make exceptions as it should already be exceptional.
Looks so simple and elegant feel like home concept cleverly design , amazing
Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Etihad, and Air France. All of Sam's top choices and I fully concur with you Sam. Bon Voyage Monsieur.
great video sir
I love you Sam, but when you taste wine, try to follow this tip: make sure you leave a few seconds after your tasting and your opinion of the wine. It is good etiquette in Europe and shows a deeper appreciation of the product. You don't have to take this advice but I thought I would let you know!! Love your videos by the way.
I just can't wait to buy my mum a ticket. I can just see her 🤣🤣 I am cracking up just imagining it,what a moment.
amazing as always,love you Sam
Sam your channel has fast become one of my favourites. As a nervous flyer it’s so lovely to see someone enjoying flying so much. Do you have any tips for a nervous flyer? Maybe something you can do a video on in the future. Thanks!
That's real luxury...not like the flashy, gawdy, ornate cabins of some other airlines..Emirates first class cabins are also lovely.
you featured my comment in the guest book 🤣.
I flew to Nice in November of 2019 and then COVID happend before i could get back. This year I am making up for lost time with two trips!
La Premiere truly is exceptional and the only way to fly.
Captain with crossed arms welcoming the passenger onboard. Nice.
