Hi everybody,
willing to visit a friend studying in Morocco, I chose to go their the week of the 21st of February.
I looked for flights 3 weeks before, price are already highs.
-AF (with carte jeune) : 200€ with 1 luggage
-TO : 235€ with no luggage
-RAM : 235€ with no luggage
I logically chose Air France
Flight routing
- 1AF1496 - Economique - Paris → Casablanca - Airbus A320
- 2AF1197 - Economique - Casablanca → Paris - Airbus A320
Thanks to subscription for people from 16 to 27 years old offered by SNCF, I arrive at CDG airport by TGV for free in 45 min.

The only desagrement is that I arrive 4 hours before my flight as the FIDS confirms :

Having so much time to spend, I start spotting.
Etihad in B777, Saudia, Air Austral

Nobody at the checks, I have never seen CDG so empty
In less than 10min, I arrive at the LISA.

Babybus AF next to an B777 AF


Then, we approch hall L
And, I am surprised to see regional airplanes of Flybe and Hop! for the UK (linked to the Brexit ?)

Finally, after an other check, passed in 5 min again
A330 Air France

And, big surprise.
An A380 AF.
Having the habit to leave from Hall L for OTP or TLV, it the first time I am just next to an A380 AF since my return flight from JFK.
It is a really impressive airplane.

Tarom in A318 :


An A350 Air Mauritius and an B787 AF pushing back

Around 6pm, I arrived to my boarding gate.
For the 1st time, I will fly on board a former Joon aircraft.


Boarding is launche with a delay of 15 min.
The zone are well respected
Fuselage shot

Instant doar :

I arrive to my seat, the 24A
the pitch is not that good for my 1m80

I love the sharklet Joon :

The PSU seems to indicate that the plane is quite young

After an announce of the captain, we understand we are going to be late.
A safety check has to be done before leaving.
We will push back with a 30 min delay.

Quick take off

After almost 45 minutes of flight, the dinner is served.
Unfortunately, I couldn't choose a special meal on the website of AF (the crew is surprised), I will give my main dish.
Bad point for AF, despite the starter and the desert are very tasty and in enough quantities.

Being hungry after the end of the service, I will ask a crew member if she had some more food.
She will give me that.

The crew is certainely the best I have ever had.
All the crew is smiling and is wonderful.
As one example, the CC will personally turn one each light of each passenger who is reading.
I have never seen something like that before.
The service ends as we are leaving the Portugese coasts.

The captain will make an announcement when seeing what he calls : "the lights of Casablanca" for starting the descent.
Having no more batterie, I couldn't take pictures of the landing.
We will land with a 30 min delay.
Than, I will leave the airport by car.
Thanks for reading
See you soon
