Hi Everyone,

After a fantastic week in New York City, it's now the time to back in France ! 


Routing

My cab drops me off in front of JFK terminal 1, about four hours before the take-off.

 I will check in my luggage at the AirFrance counter.

After security check, i'm going to walk around the terminal. There are not many stores inside.
But we can do a lot of plane spotting !

My plane which will bring me back to Orly is an AirFrance Boeing 777-200 delivered to the company on January 19, 1999, the day before my birth ! F-GSPE !

The boarding starts at 6:55 PM with the families with childs, the business class passengers and the Skypriority Flying Blue members.

My seat for the next 7 hours. A pillow, blanket, eye mask and headphones are placed on the seat when I arrive.
The seat is comfortable, but I wouldn't have much time to sleep!

The seat is great with a good pitch for the legs.

Boarding is complete and the push-back can be done on time. The captain introduce himself and announce 7 hours of flight time.

After 20 minutes on the taxiways, we line up on runway 22R and take off.

Just one hour after takeoff, the meal will be served.
No more choice when the trolley arrives at my row…
I should settle for the chicken. No problem, that's what I would have chosen ! It was really great !

Outside the sun goes down. It's now the time to sleep. 5 hours and 30 minutes left before landing in Orly !

 I wake up two and a half hours before landing. I get up to go to the toilets and try to find something to eat in the galley.

Nothing to eat but a lot of differents drinks.

1h30 before landing, the breakfast is served.

The descent begin 30 minutes before landing. Landing expected on time on runway 6.

Bye bye Papa Echo !

Paris vous aime… Me too ! <3<3<3

The border control will not take a long time but my luggage takes a long time to arrive.
Orly airport is poorly served by public transport, so I would go home by car! 


Thanks for reading this flight report! This summer, I would write some reviews in English on a A330 IB or a 747-8 LH on short-haul flights in Europe!
See you soon! ;)

Conclusion

Air France :
A great service, a lovely crew, a confortable cabin... What else ? :)

JFK :
Small terminal, not a lot of shops but enough seating to sit.

ORY :
Fast border controls but a lot of waiting to collect luggage and little transport to get Paris.
