Air France La Premiere: Tất Cả Thông Tin Về Hạng Nhất Mới Trên Chuyến Bay

Introducing Air France's La Premiere

Air France's first class, known as \"La Premiere,\" is regarded as one of the finest first-class products in the world. The airline is in the process of rolling out a completely new first-class suite, taking the flying experience to new heights. The previous first class was already impressive, and this new version promises to be even more remarkable.

Air France is actively expanding its new first-class offering on various routes, with 13 aircraft currently equipped and an ever-growing list of destinations. Even if the ticket prices for Air France's first class exceed your budget, it's worth knowing which aircraft feature the new first class, as they also offer an excellent business class that can easily be booked using Air France-KLM Flying Blue miles.

Which Aircraft Feature La Premiere?

La Premiere is exclusively available on a select group of Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, which offer four service classes (first class, business class, premium economy, and economy). Currently, it is installed on over two dozen Boeing 777-300ERs, making up about half of the fleet of this type. It's important to note that you won't find first class on any other Air France aircraft, including the A330, A350, 787, and other models.

Air France is increasing the number of Boeing 777-300ERs with first-class cabins; however, the total number of 777s that will ultimately feature first class remains unclear.

Routes with La Premiere

Air France operates Boeing 777-300ERs with first class on several routes between Paris (CDG) and the following destinations:

Abidjan (ABJ)

Atlanta (ATL)

Dubai (DXB) — temporarily suspended

Los Angeles (LAX)

Miami (MIA)

New York (JFK)

San Francisco (SFO)

Sao Paulo (GRU)

Singapore (SIN)

Tel Aviv (TLV) — temporarily suspended

Tokyo (HND)

Washington (IAD)

In addition to the current routes, Air France has announced plans to expand the La Premiere network by adding new aircraft to the fleet. Specifically, first class will soon be available on the following routes:

To Boston (BOS) starting July 20, 2026

To Houston (IAH) starting July 6, 2026

In the past, Air France also offered first class to destinations such as Beirut (BEY), Hong Kong (HKG), Johannesburg (JNB), and Mexico City (MEX), among many others.

Launch Timeline for the New First Class Cabin

Air France's plan is to upgrade the entire Boeing 777-300ER fleet with this new first-class cabin by the end of 2026. Currently, you can find the new cabins on 777-300ERs with registration codes such as F-GSQC, F-GSQE, F-GSQF, F-GSQK, F-GSQL, F-GSQY, F-GZND, F-GZNE, F-GZNH, F-GZNK, F-GZNP, F-GZNQ, and F-GZNR. So far, a total of 13 aircraft have been upgraded, with F-GSQU appearing to be next in line.

Interestingly, some of the previously configured 777-300ERs had a three-cabin layout without first class, which explains the increase in La Premiere capacity and the subsequent rise in the number of destinations served.

What's New in Air France's First Class?

Flights between Paris (CDG) and Los Angeles (LAX) feature the new cabin on flights AF20/21, AF22/23, and AF24/25. The route between Paris (CDG) and Miami (MIA) also showcases the new cabin on flight AF90/91. Flights to New York (JFK) typically have the new cabin on flights AF4/3 and AF6/5. The journey to Singapore (SIN) includes the new cabin for flight AF256/257, and the Tokyo (HND) route features it on flight AF274/275. However, routes operated by this new aircraft type may change.

When searching for flights online, you can check if your flight has the new first-class cabin by visiting Air France's website and looking for information indicating \"Aircraft equipped with the new La Premiere suite.\"

Things to Keep in Mind When Flying First Class

Additionally, when you access the seat map, you'll notice a different layout featuring both seats and loungers. The seat numbers also differ — in the new configuration, first class includes seats 1A, 1D, 1H, and 1L, while the old configuration included seats 1A, 1E, 1F, and 1L.

Don't forget that these upgraded aircraft are not just good news for first-class passengers. As Air France installs the new first-class cabins, the airline is also completely overhauling its Boeing 777-300ER fleet. Excitingly, these aircraft will also receive a new business class with doors, making this a positive aspect of the updates.

Conclusion

Currently, Air France only offers La Premiere first-class cabins on over two dozen Boeing 777-300ERs, operating on select long-haul flights from Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG) in Paris. These aircraft are undergoing renovations, and so far, Air France has updated the interiors of 13 planes. You can expect to see these updated 777-300ERs flying from Paris (CDG) to Los Angeles (LAX), Miami (MIA), New York (JFK), Singapore (SIN), and Tokyo (HND) on select flights. Naturally, this brings excitement for first-class travelers, but it's also a positive development for business class passengers, as that cabin has also received a refresh.
