Air France

This is the narrowest seat I have traveled in, and it is very hard. As a result it is near impossible to sleep, and becomes painful after two hours of flight. Frequent position changes are the only way to accomodate the pain. Air France cram 10 seats abreast seats in a Boeing 777 (like Emirates etc), and it is clearly perceptible in the seat and armrest width. Even the aisles are hard to navigate with a bag.

I must say that for the price I paid - 380 Euros- for a return flight from Malaga to New York JFK I shouldn't be complaining at all. However I have to admit that I am a bit disappointed with the seats: they were new but small and not comfortable at all. I am 5 feet 7 inches, so not exactly a giant, but still I haven't been able to find the right position and rest properly. The screen for the infotainment was old and small too. The good news is that there was a USB socket so I have been able to charge my iPad and watch movies on a decent size screen.

Good Premium Economy seat with a good tv and good storage. The seats are old, but they are very comfortable. The tv is good but it isn't very easy to touch the screen. There is a big storage, but only near to the windows, so if you aren't near to the window you haven't any storage. I was near to the window.

The seat is a shell type setting and does not recline. You move downwards versus recline and the seat is hard and is very uncomfortable. There is a foot rest which helps but I did leave the aircraft with lower back pain as the seat positioning is awful. The leg room is fine if you want to sit upright but if you want to lower the seat forget it as the body mechanics you end up in prevent any type of comfort.

Buenos Aires to Paris return on Boeing 777. Seats narrow, the front seat almost on my face. Impossible to rest neither sleep. I'm 1,83m and wieght 84kgs. normal size. It so small the tray that it makes impossible to eat and the tray where they bring the meal is so tiny you can't eat.

Air France A380 Premium Economy seats are dreadful. They slide down and there is no recline. You will probably end up, like me and other reviewers here, with an aching back for days after and you will be very lucky to get any sleep. They offer no comfort whatsoever. I suffered this seat on an eleven hour flight. My partner is much shorter than me and she also found the seat dreadful. What on earth are you thinking of Air France to offer such a ridiculous seat for so much money? Premium economy is exactly that - a better experience, more room, more comfort and a more premium version of economy. We did not get any of this.

This is the first time I fly with Air France for a long haul flight from France to Indonesia because they offered a very attractive price comparing to the airlines I usually take (Emirates and Qatar Airways). After reading the reviews before flying on this website, I was scared. But then the nightmare really did come to reality! The seat recline was horrible, and I could not really sleep during a 12 hours flight from CDG Paris to Kuala Lumpur (transit). I also felt that the seat was narrower than KLM's. Luckily the air crews were very nice and always offer water to the passengers. Since this is the old Boeing 777-200, the entertainment system was old too and offered a very limited choices. I chose a vegetarian meal, and I must say they were not the best. Toilets did not offer too many things, but they were quite clean.

The design is a capsule where the seat does not recline but slides down in a fixed position and while you gain no comfort from this shift, you lose leg room as the capsule moves into your available leg room. The other issue is that there are inadequate toilets with wait times of 30 minutes or longer as the line of passengers grows and the wait becomes painful. Things like having no place to put your coat, the lack of adequate toilet facilities and the rediculat but expensive capsule seats in premium economy make this a costly and uncomfortable option.

SIN-CDG and back on Air France economy class. Decent in flight entertainment, no flight delays. Leg room is little, and my knees often banged the seat in front of me, seat is too narrow, I ended up rubbing shoulders with other passengers whenever we moved about our seats.

I'm not used to travelling with Air France and it has been a really good surprise for me when I discovered the new cabin! The seats are well designed, the headrests are covered with leather, there is an individual pillow (which is aesthetically pleasant) for each seat and the legroom is quite good (I'm tall). But the most impressive thing is the HD screen! In Economy Class, having a such beautiful screen is uncommon. The seat recline is not the best I have known but that's correct. I really appreciated the service and I love the new brand image, built on the French values (the safety video is adorable). I do recommend this airline for a long-haul flight!
