We both have no problem sleeping in the air on lie flat seats. Add in the Air France First Class experience in the air and on the ground at CDG including Alain Ducasse restaurant in the FCL, and this one is a no brainer. But it's not for everyone.
See my edit above - I noted one exception after reconsidering, and it'd be to fly La Premiere. It's the only F product I really, really want to try. I wouldn't get a wink of sleep and I'd arrive a disaster, just like I would in coach, but it'd be worth it to try that. It would have to be from the west coast, though. From the east coast, I'll sit in the aisle in coach.
