LAX-CDG-DXB; long-time FTer; 1st-time AF
Hello everyone. Hoping into the AF forum after years and years and years on AA since that’s where my home/heart/points are.
But my BA leg of my AA routing from LAX to DXB was cancelled a few days ago ... so I booked AF in Business and joined the Flying Blue program.
1. LAX to DXB via CDG will be A 777-300 and a 787-900, I believe. I generally fly the triple 7 on AA so I assume it’s all the same in the air. The whisky appears better on AF 😂
2. I studied up that I’m to use the Korean Air lounge at LAX? Correct/wrong?
3. Appears I have 3 hours at CDG so I’ll just use a lounge or is there a particular one you suggest?
4. Return is on KLM (codeshare AF?) through Amsterdam (a few hours). Gonna be weird in Business as it’s 2-2-2 and I’m deciding to take a seat in the center section to have easy aisle access.
5. How is this airline? KLM.
6. Last question. Thoughts about using the meet-n-greet service in CDG or even DXB upon arrival? Seems fairly inexpensive to be hand-held.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and guidance
