Meal service on AF 347 YUL-CDG
I'm in Affaires on this flight, booked with DL miles. On my DL itinerary it says that the meal is only breakfast, but this seemed odd for a 6+ hour flight leaving at 7:55pm. Can someone confirm that there is indeed dinner service? Thanks in advance.

I think this might be more up to antiquated airline systems in general, as it seems they tend to only be capable of displaying one meal.

I was able to get an Affaires RT for just 100K miles in June, only two months in advance. Almost all the low-level awards on DL to anywhere in Europe involved this flight, which is still virtually empty. It's a little silly for me to fly from NY to YUL to CDG (and then on to BER), but silliness aside I'm happy to try the flight.

Maybe it was (temporary) penance for the DL and Flying Blue BE award system having been on the fritz for the past few weeks? Sorry to hear the deals were only short-lived!

I was contemplating doing this more than once but in the end am only flying AMS-YUL-CDG
It was a deal on the MR forum: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milea...165-eur-i.html
Only "disadvantage" have to fly back to Paris (but get to fly back on the A380). The return from CDG to AMS is going to be an one-way award or Thalys depending on what is available.

If you book the Thalys in advance (that is T-3 months) you can find Amsterdam - Paris on the direct Thalys for E35 one-way. Just our bad luck there are no cheap trains available then (but cannot complain with the airfare).
