Review – Air France 787-9 business class Paris to Seattle

In this video we take a nearly 10-hour flight from Paris CDG to Seattle on the Air France Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. Charles de Gaulle may offer a nightmarish transit experience, but the rest of the trip is rather delightful. The highlight?

You guessed it: the food. But the rest wasn’t bad either and we’re treated to some very nice wing and engine views on the approach into a sunny, gorgeous Seattle too. This marks the beginning of a longer trip into Alaska taken in April this year – stay tuned and make sure to subscribe to see upcoming flights to Anchorage, Nome and Unalakleet!
