Air France is offering its new cabins on the B777-300-serviced Paris–Dubai route. This is due to the gradual implementation of the B777-300, which now sees the carrier deploy it five to seven times a week to Dubai, and then on a daily basis from the summer.
Flight AF3884 departs Paris-Charles de Gaulle at 1330 and arrives in Dubai at 2305. The return AF3831 service will then see the B777 take off from Dubai at 0115 before touching back down in Paris at 0550.
La Premiere
As previously reported by Business Traveller Asia-Pacific last year (see here), the highlight has to be the new La Premiere suite. Dressed with thick curtains that are held back with leather tiebacks, the new design features a bold design that enables passengers to decide if they wish to have full or partial privacy.
The seat is also capable of becoming a fully-flat bed that is over two metres long. Cabin crew will fit the bed with a mattress, large pillow, and Sofitel MyBed duvet when a guest is looking to get some sleep.
Business class
Meanwhile, the new Zodiac Cirrus business class seat is also able to turn into a bed that is nearly two metres long. The seat’s soft foam is designed to deliver excellent quality of sleep, while the bed’s enveloping and padded headboard conveys the impression of being in a warm, contemporary room.
Premium economy
In premium economy, customers will be able to enjoy more comfortable seat cushions and a multi-position footrest. Finally, in economy, the new redesigned seat offers more legroom, new seat cushions, softer headrest and a larger tray table. In addition, there are also new features such as electric sockets and headphone holders.
