AF new business class SFO-CDG
any idea when we will see the new AF Business class to CDG from SFO? thanks!
Hello legofff
I believe that is an A380 route starting from April and AF has not even started upgrade those planes, will be the last planes to be upgraded.
Going from the comments on this tread over on Flyertalk from last year it will take several years yet before the A380 are done.

AF is just under half way there with the B777 at the moment.

Beginning of April to end October the routes is operated by A380, then back to B777

Going from the tail number from FR24 on recent flights both B772 and B77W on this are 3 cabin with the old NEV4 config with J as the highest cabin.
So no hope at all before November.
So accroding to this tread on Flyertalk AF will only update 44 B777 with new seats, and they are behind schedule due to supplier problems, was supposed to be finished by June 2017.

In good news however newly upgraded A380’s should start to fly from 2018.
