For my normal flight MAN-AMS-NUE, Air France has the slight advantage of using Embarers (SP???) at least for the CDG-NUE part of the flight and these do give a far smoother ride as they are designed to cruise at 30000+ ft.

Not for much longer you wont, as I reported some months ago KLC flights will be true cattle truck class very soon with no freebies
