My first flight on the recently launched new Air France route from Glasgow to Paris CDG. Here's a link to my YouTube channel with a video of the takeoff and landing:



G-GUGM on it's way from Paris to pick me up. First flight on the Airbus A318 babybus.

View from the Sky Lounge at Glasgow Airport. Access with Sky Priority Elite Plus membership. The daily United 757-200 arriving from Newark.

Boarding was slightly delayed, not too impressed with the Swissport handling agents at Glasgow, not the most friendly today. Flight was fairly full. Takeoff from Runway 05 at GLA.

Some nice views of the city as we depart from Glasgow.



Onboard service consisted of a choice of fresh pain au chocolat or a croissant with a good selection of drinks.

No views of the English channel today…the flight was quite bumpy too

Conclusion

Nice to see Air France at my home airport and have more Skyteam options flying out of Glasgow. My overall preference though remains with KLM through Amsterdam but still enjoyable trip with AF on the babybus.
