Stormy Flight - Air France B777 NEW Business Class to New York

I flew on Air France's new Business Class seat on their refurbished B777-300/ER from Paris to New York. The weather in New York was bad with rain and low visibility. Watch the exciting landing at JFK.

The newly configured Air France B777-300/ER has 48 Business Class suites, 48 Premium Economy class seats and 273 Economy seats. It features a privacy door in Business class. Row 1 and 9 has a massive footwell and extra room due to the bulkhead position. Air France’s new Premium Economy seat comes with a deep recline which is different from the current fixed shell design.

3 refurbished Air France 777-300/ER currently fly between Paris and JFK (AF22/15), Dakar and Rio with this new configuration. 9 more B777 will be refurbished by the end of this year.

Before my flight, I visited the Air France Operation Control Center (OCC) to see how my flight was dispatched. A rare behind-the-scenes discovery! The weather in New York was very bad with rain and low visibility. Our plane was on hold for 40 minutes before cleared to ILS approach on Runway 13L. Watch the exciting landing at JFK.

The whole video is great but I absolutely love it when the gentleman comes to speak to Sam in Chinese, as he, himself, is a french-speaking Camaroonian! It really drives home the point that we are all brothers and sisters and that there is such a kinship in speaking each other's languages and enjoying each other's cultures. We should celebrate and enjoy the variety that we share within our human race and stop letting these wonderful things be used as tools to divide us. Sorry for the soapbox rant, but that brief moment in Sam's video really touched my heart.

What I like about Air France is they operate one of the Major Wide-bodies In the World and have a record breaking Fleet of amazing Airbus and Boeing jets.

There are many aviation flight reviewers/vloggers but only Sam has this level of access to all the behind the scenes action! Love it! Keep it up Sam!!!

Wow, thanks Sam and AF for letting us look at the back operation of airline and airports

Hi Sam, your video was my first exposure to the Operational Control Center. Wow, 24/7 support of flights globally. Hey, how did they do this in the 70s or 60s--maybe in your next video. Thanks for increasing our knowledge of aviation. Cheers...

I guess by now every Airlines will come to know you and will alert their pilots and crews to ensure you are served well with the best service they can offer. You have reviewed so many flight services and they know that reviewers like you could help promote their businesses. Keep it up Sam!

I was a steward for Air France for many years beginning in the 1970's, it is still a great airline!

How lucky are the crew who fly around the world in super comfort with excellent drinks and food meeting all types of people. ❤

Air France has been a class act for years, and seems only to be getting better. Flew with them in economy about a year ago, superb flight, from the food, to the staff's attention, the condition of the aircraft, everything. Wish Delta would learn a thing or two from them!

The people behind Sam, when he was reclining, were not happy at all 😂😂

Spectacular aircraft. The 777 300 ER is the most beautiful plane that exists

[FelixCervantes]

Awesome, I been flying Air France a lot lately. In November, I flew in business and things were starting to fall apart with some of the hardware. Love their food. Their bread is always the best!

[kevster]

I wonder how genuine these videos are as a representation of the service for the other passengers as am sure Sam gets the VIP treatment

[bernardtan]
