Couple of flights with them and I would like to remark that the quality of the catering is a bit hit-and-miss especially for starters but also too often for the main courses. Soups, desserts, breakfast, drinks - all top notch. And obviously the catering in the Premiere Salon which blows every other lounge I know out of the water - but that doesn't help when 10 hours after take-off from CDG the Salon is long gone and what is on the plate in front is less inspiring. Add to that another point that I had made in a previous post, the *extremely* limited choice on some shorter night flights (e.g. the very early JFK-CDG, AF 023). Food-wise I find LX and LH much more consistent on a high level, even if one or the other plate on AF stands out very positively from time to time.
Still, not to sound only negative, also some positive surprises to report: the new amenity kits which started to appear beginning of the week (Sunday to CDG was still the old one, Monday out of CDG the new one, Monday eve back to CDG the old one, Tuesday out of the CDG the new one...) are very very nice. Though too small to fit in toothbursh and toothpaste. And I was extremely impressed by the escort service that worked flawlessly at at outstation where I took a J-only flight on a Skyteam partner airline to connect to my P flight.
