Bravo ... I just stumbled across this, best trip report ever (well, I may be a bit biased 
).
I hope you don't get into any trouble for having taken a photo of that fake vine leaf ("reproduction interdite") .... at least you didn't try to eat it (yes, I actually saw that in J once).
Are the lounge paintings on LCDs and do they change?

Very nice trip report Falco, as usual... Thank you for sharing.
It was a very nice experience to fly to New York onboard the AF 380 thanks to FT and you.
But... May I ask you to be kind enough to bring us back to Paris for Christmas???
I am really looking forward the La Premiere experience with the 380, and of course your comments about the Jacquesson Champagne in the La premiere lounge...

a very entertaining report, thank you! seems to be quite a civilized travel experience (at least in J and F) compared to the A-340 or B-777. I would especially enjoy all the empty spaces to walk and stand around during long flights. this is a major plus!
