BACKGROUND Air France launched its new long-haul business class product on its Boeing 777-300ER in early 2023, featuring the “three F's” – fully flat, full aisle access, and full privacy. The retrofit is being extended to all 12 of the airline's long-haul 777-300 fleet, plus the A350-900s, with routes served including New York JFK, Rio de Janeiro, Dakar, Johannesburg, Tokyo, Seoul and Shanghai. The carrier will also launch a new La Première (first class) product next year.
CHECK- IN I arrived at JFK Terminal 1 at 1420 for the 1730 flight AF15 to Paris. The check-in counters were directly in front of the entrance and there was a short queue in both SkyPriority and normal counters. We used a private expedited security lane (open 9am-10pm, US$35, reserve via ) and I was airside by 1445. Laptop and shoes had to be removed, but not liquids.
