air france premium economy review 777-300

It’s not a bad bag at all, and contains a toothbrush, pen, earplugs, a pair of socks, and eyeshades. Waiting at each seat was a small bottle of Evian (see photo below), and even a small amenity kit bag. Frankly, I think the missing footrest made these seats better, with plenty of space to stretch out. Legroom is also quite generous in these seats.

Air France is usually pretty good about keeping up appearances on its aircraft, in my experience. I noted numerous cuts and scratches on the armrests, along with a pretty beat up seatback pocket.

One thing you will notice in the following photos, though, is the seats are showing their age. It definitely looks and feels “Business Lite” more than “Economy Plus”, especially with the fixed shell. The blue seats look stylish, especially with the orange pillows. In addition, the seats are a fixed shell design, where they slide forward but don’t recline into the space behind you. The seats feature pretty impressive dimensions for Premium Economy, at 19″ wide with 38″ of pitch. The Premium Economy cabin is behind the Business Class mini-cabin, with three rows in a 2-4-2 configuration. This particular version (V2 on SeatGuru) is a premium-heavy configuration. There are four, count ’em, four versions of the 772 in the Air France lineup. Air France B772 Premium Economy – Seating and Interior We eventually pushed back about 50 minutes late. Frankly, I’m semi-impressed that they held the flight so long to allow everyone to make their connections. So even though that flight arrived 4 minutes early, the fustercluck that is transit at CDG makes that nigh impossible. At the time, Air France sold an insane 60-minute connection to DFW from Chennai. I later overheard we were waiting for a large number of passengers trying to connect from Chennai. Unfortunately, despite boarding early, we then proceeded to sit and wait. I snapped a quick photo of our older 777 (placed in service ) on the way down the jetbridge. It took about half an hour to get through, and I made it to the gate with a little time to spare.īoarding actually began a few minutes early. Sky Priority came in handy again, though. And so I joined the chaos that is CDG on a Sunday morning, with the signboards showing a 66 minute wait to get through immigration and security. No, it’s fine I don’t like those footrests anyway.

The problem? No, not SSSS, but they wanted to advise me of a broken footrest at my seat, and asked if I wished to change. Thankfully, Premium Economy flex tickets receive access to the Sky Priority line, so I reached an agent quickly. Anyway, I hurried to get ready and get to the counter.
