@Zbman: thanks for your reply. I'm 100% entitled to express my opinion on AF's service compared to other companies I'm flying with and this has nothing to do with feeling like I'm obligated to do so. And it does not compare favourably in my experience. I could say the same from other flagship carriers too, with which I've flown on my usual routes but that's not my point.
I get your point regarding AF's air crews terms and conditions. It would have been nice to make it clear whether you are or not among them.
As for AF being in danger, well, numerous sources qualify the recently announced steps as "an effort to save the company" so the situation must be serious indeed, even if my saying "on the brink of bankruptcy" might have been pushing it too far.
