Air France La Première at SFO

At around 2:15p we headed for the Air Train and the short ride to the International Terminal.

To the La Première counter at Air France check-in, where a friendly agent completed our check in and summoned a La Première colleague to personally escort us to security and the lounge.

... where we used our CLEAR cards to jump the queue since AF is not a PreCheck participant...

... meeting our rep inside security.

And then off to the Air France/KLM lounge.

Which is where the old Delta lounge used to be on the lower level just inside the lounge doors.

A pretty basic and crappy lounge with a reasonable attempt to segregate La Première passengers for the hoi polloi in Business Class.  Not luxurious by any stretch of the imagination but I'm not sure what more they can do with only one F flight a day. This small space used to be the Business center when it was a Delta Sky Club.  

Ordinarily I would blur faces of other First Class pax, but these two going back home to France were Business Class passengers at best. Not sure how they got in and why they were allowed to stay, perhaps friends and family, but they had grabbed the best seats and were happily stuffing their faces most of the time we were there.  

There was a limited self serve food and spirits set up...

... as well as a menu with a few substantial and fairly attractive dining options. A very pleasant attendant was assigned to the room and was eager to please.

Finally convincing Mrs. SFO777 to try her freshly baked chocolate chip cookies.

While I went for some cheese and authentic French macarons.

Some pics of the rest of the very crowded lounge.

But with a great view...

At around T-35, our La Première rep Peggy came to escort us to our gate.

As a life long Cavaliers fan who thoroughly enjoyed our 1st NBA Championship ever over the overhyped and overrated Warriors, LOL on selling these now useless T-shirts.
