“Worst airline I have ever flown with in my life, I warn you to avoid flying with them.”
Review of Air France


Reviewed 7 August 2024

I flew with Air France from Boston to Paris, with only one small suitcase on the plane. The flight attendants are nice, but the economy class seats are very small and cramped and the chairs are not comfortable, and the plane did not seem as clean as it is supposed to be. Regarding the food, it did not look good, and the taste was even worse. When I checked in to Paris, I had no problem with my carry-on, but on the way back they did not let me board with it, claiming that it was over the weight limit. I even said that it was the same weight when I went there. Then I said that I did not want to check my suitcase, but they said that if I did not check it, it would not go with me. So I said ok, but if their employees damage my suitcase, you will have to pay for a new one. Guess what? When I got back to Boston, my suitcase was all broken and one wheel was flat. I reported what happened to them, but they said they would not be responsible for my loss. So here is my note of repudiation to this filthy and irresponsible company. If you don't want to be bothered, DON'T TRAVEL WITH THEM. BECAUSE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS, THEY WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR LOSS.

I had to make two reservations for my family for our trip to Tokyo because I had to pay with two different cards. I reserved in premium economy and only shortly before the trip did I realize that Air France had made an error on one of the reservations, putting part of my family in economy. I called Air France to try to solve this problem and they turned a deaf ear on my request. The only solution that they proposed for this error in their system was that I pay almost double what I had paid for my premium economy seats to have my economy seats upgraded so my family could travel together. I spent more than five or six hours on the telephone with various agents of Air France trying to find a solution. I asked to be connected with the superior and all of them refused. I asked for an email that I could contact someone to listen to my case and no one would provide me one. Except the last lady to whom I spoke, who gave me an email, to which I wrote. I was surprised that Air France responded by having somebody telephone me. But this person accused me of the error and not Air France and again only proposed that I pay this time almost 3 times the original price for premium economy to have my two other members of the family join me so we could travel together. Not only was there no effort to find a solution but Air France accused me of the problem. I was scandalized by the by the argumentative tone of the agent who called to tell me, there was nothing he could do. He tried to put all of the blame on me again, which I found counterproductive. I wish he just have never called me because it would’ve saved me time. It was very disappointing to think that the company had no interest in trying to repair what is meant to be a special moment for a family to make a long trip from Paris to Tokyo. The feeling I got was that they did not care in the least. In my opinion, I would say that Air France is OK more or less if there is not a problem. But if there is one they don’t care about it. I recommend that you know this before you travel with them. I won’t be traveling with them in the future, that’s for sure.

I had a very disappointing experience with Air France. My flight from Bangalore to Toronto included a layover in Paris, but a 6-hour delay departing Bangalore caused me to miss my connecting flight. The next available flight wasn't for another 24 hours. The way Air France treated their passengers was extremely poor; the sleeping arrangements provided looked like a mortuary, as shown in the photos. They also only gave €15 for three meals, which is utterly inadequate. I never expected such poor hospitality from the airline. Unfortunately, I would not recommend Air France to anyone in the future.
