To Paris and The La Première Lounge

Air France La Première to San Francisco

After a great match day in Manchester, it was time to head home to Denver… the long way of course. And another wonderful day with Air France La Première. The only bad part of the trip was the 6am departure and having to endure Manchester Airport Terminal 2… a mile long post security walk to the A concourse, with jet bridges 4 flights of stairs down from the gate and concourse. But once on board, Air France Euro Business Class was excellent on a new A220. And exceptional La Première ground service in Paris, limo to the La Première Lounge and another round of Alain Ducasse Coquillettes Truffe/Noir aka Truffle Mac n Cheese.

The throng at 4:20am.  

Sadly not a hint of La Première service at this outstation... where almost everyone is Priority.

A mile walk later...

Ridiculous airport design with jet bridges 4 flights of stairs down from the gate and concourse.

Back in my 2A seat.

Gorgeous sunrise.

As we arrived, our La Première service kicked in as we were met at the door by our wonderful La Première personal assistant.

Tarmac photo op.

And our Porsche wheels.

First stop is security as apparently the French don't trust the Brits.

A few minutes later, back home!

And Alain Ducasse coquillettes, one more time.

After breakfast, a quick tour of the new La Première suites.  As if La Première isn't expesive enough, Air France wants €800 per person for 3 hours.  Yeah, that a big no thanks here.
