Air France economy to Hong Kong, late January 2008. Never again. So poor was it that I used it as my first joke in a client presentation, to whit: "flying here with Air France and arriving last night was what my last Christmas with my first ex-wife was like - cold, cramped and uncomfortable"
Surrounded by corpulent Americans who were complaining that "everyone was speaking French" and cabin crew whose reaction to passengers (y'know, the ones who were paying their salaries) was bordering on the contemptuous.
Now - any time I'm going east and BA isn't an option (went with BA every other time, and they were surprisingly good) - it's either Emirates or Gulf Air for me.
Air France. Flown to Middle East & Brazil with them a few times.
On their long haul flights they have a small curtained off area at the back called "Le Coin Fumeur" where you can have a fag. If you're lucky they may even serve you a nice chilled glass of Chablis while you're smoking it!
