Air France First Class Ground Services Are Amazing!

I am doing this on Monday - just hope the 'hole man' is finished by then!

Formidable!

Had an escort through security flying LH F ex MCO and cut through a bunch of flight attendants who weren't too happy as well 😛

Amazing to see that lounge so empty, when I've been there it's always chockablock full of QF94 and QF108 pax.

is this from DL miles?

Nice! I like the flight crew cut in

Ben, was it difficult for you to leave the lounge with all that eye candy on the ladder?

@Ozaer You cant book first with skypesos.

"where she actively placed my bags in front of the Singapore Airlines crew that was queuing to go through security."

Good thing Janesis wasn't there, because, awkward...

I like that you observed the look on the Flight Attendants faces, recognised that there was a reason for guilt but that you 'almost felt guilty'. Ha!

Also, I find airport lounges between airlines extremely interesting. I was surprised to find that GA shares QF's business intl lounge in Sydney. However, at the moment Sydney is building a SkyTeam Lounge and GA is going to become a Sky Team member next year, so there is talk that they will move to there shortly.

I hope you're pleasantly surprised with AF!

I so disrespect you for not panting the guy on the ladder……..that's a photo I would pay to see to determine if he was French or just One World!

Well at least you did not see a crack...on the plane that is!

Flying out of Paris we were escorted all the way to the lounge bypassing every queue. Then my wife needed something at the pharmacy and the only one was back landslide so someone in the lounge escorted my wife back out to the landslide of the terminal took her to the pharmacy, translated for her and escorted her back through the queues. Amazing.

Then on landing in JFK we were escorted all the way from the plane to kerbside and included cutting all the immigration lines and customs. No other airline does this in New York. I asked her how come they do this and she said they wanted to differentiate themselves to the other european airlines.

@ Ozaer N. -- I used FlyingBlue miles. More details in this post:

This was actually identical to my Lufthansa First experience in November. Gate Agent walked me through security to the United Global First lounge...

Enjoy, Lucky! We flew AF J back in May out of LAX, and we were directed to the Korean Air lounge, which was underwhelming (though it did have a special "First Class" section). Perhaps AF realized that putting its F passengers in the Korean Air First lounge would not be up to snuff? Anyway-- AF gets a lot of bad flack, but I thoroughly enjoyed our flight even in business-- food and IFE were above average, wine was spectacular and the service was charming. So I can only imagine in First!
