I've had a number of flights on AF and I've now vowed
NEVER AGAIN! 
Every flight:
* Rude staff
* Never on time (best effort was still 30 mins late)
* In-flight F/A's and service was rude, lazy & basically non existent (Especially longhaul)
* Economy cabin should be renamed Peasant or Poverty class. It’s dirty, cheap and nasty.
* No point in CDG gate staff, again rude, lazy and basically non existent
* Not the greatest safety record
* As the National carrier, they give the French a very poor representation. Maybe this is where the negative stereotypes actually came from.
Good points?
* Err
* I met a female F/O on the A320 fleet once...She was
very nice.
* The wine is drinkable even in Peasant...I mean "Tempo"
* That’s about it...Avoid!
