This was an 11 hour flight from Paris to Rio de Janeiro and back. I took the night flight on purpose to get some sleep and I chose Air France because I'm still collecting points and because they offered a night flight (unlike BA). Even with the aid of sleeping pills I found it hard to get any sleep as the incline meant that I kept sliding (or felt like I was sliding). The passenger next to me actually felt like he was too close to me. The inflight screen seemed a bit old, as did most of anything related to seats. I'm still loyal to Air France but really don't know for how long especially that their hub is that awful CDG airport.

Seat is very-old generation lie-flat. IFE very poor, few selections. Food OK and service unattentive.

If you do intend on sleeping you will spend almost the entire time sliding down the seat which opens at an angle and having your feet resting and actually supporting your body from sliding further. Being 6'2", sleep eludes me in this seat.

Avoid at all cost ! If you can you must fly ANA or JAL. Service on AF is mediocre, food is below average, cabin crew disappear most of flight, seat very uncomfortable, you keep on sliding down. If you have a window seat or middle seat need to climb above your neighbour.

It is not a flat seat, and it is too short (I am 185 cm), so during your sleep you slide downwards and eventually wake up. When sitting, the seat is OK.

SFO-CDG. Seats were good but the angle was weird and without a foot rest I couldn't get comfortable so sleeping was out for the 11-hour flight to and from. FA's were attentive coming and going. Flight was a bit warm and the air blowers didn't work very well.

Absolute the worst seat I have set in on any Business class flight. 165 degree incline feels to be sliding out of the seat. No space for tall people, very poor leg room when fully extended. Will avoid Air France in the future very bad experience.

Seat was pretty good and colours in cabin quite tasteful. The seat felt 'too upright' when not reclined at all, but with a small adjustment was fine. IFE is pretty poor considering what some airlines give in economy, and it wasn't possible to get the screen level. Food OK, but not 'first class' and considering the French seem to think they're the world's best cooks, pretty average. Service was good and staff made the seat into a bed as soon as asked. Managed about 7 hours sleep on outbound and five on return so pretty good. Proper pillow and quilt certainly made a big difference. The AF first is a bit better than some other airlines business (BA, Virgin), but still some way behind other premium products.

Seat is pretty spacious and can be put into a comfortable position for relaxing. Sleeping position good but only when the foot rest was out to stop yourself from sliding down. The thing I could fault is the length of the seat. I'm only 5"10 and if any taller would have had feet pressed against seat alcove.

Have to agree with other reviewers that having the seat fully extended is quite uncomfortable unless you have very short legs. Moving it back a little from fully extended allows a more comfortable experience.

NRT-CDG-NRT. Lie-flat seat angle is not horizontal enough to preclude sliding but adequately confortable. Seat is wide and long enough, but there is no place to stow your personal effects except one tiny slot the size of a magazine. So if you are not sitting next to an empty seat, your seat in the reclined position must accomodate all of your stuff not in the overhead bin (in addition to yourself). Entertainment system is on demand for films only, you must tolerate viewing news, cartoons, television programmes etc from the middle. My system kept breaking down.

Not comfortable seat. Bottom cushion is too flat and on flat position I always slide into the foot cavity. Too bad there is no footbar to reduce sliding. Complicated to sleep on lateral position (my favorite) due to the poor space between the legrest and the upper cavity portion. I pinched my foot many times. My headphone didn't work correctly and the monitor on the monument is too tiny and too far from the seat to watch correctly a movie. 1st row seat with a video arm should be better.

I was not impressed with Air France's business class seats. We have flown from Miami - Paris- Beijing and returning from Kong Kong I was miserable after watching all the movies on the way over and I had to watch the same movies returning. The seats are very close to the front seat making impossible to get up and go to the toilet - luckily I knew the person sitting next to me - no problem storing bags. Seats don't go flat, awful angle.

Flew CDG-HKG and back in L'Espaces Affaires. Seats were comfortable for sitting but I could not get my legs at a comfortable angle when reclined, woke up several times due to discomfort. Seats very noisy when changing position. Due to width, very difficult to pass seat when reclined, making bathroom access difficult if at window or middle seat. Brightness issues with seat back screens, had to keep re-setting to the brightest to see the screen. Amenity kit most miserable I've ever seen in Business class, indeed I've had many better in economy! Would advise against seats in the back row of J if avoidable. Due to proximity to bulkhead row of economy cabin, likelihood of infants very high and screams very audible!
