Air France has redefined premium air travel with the debut of its La Première Suite, an ultra-luxe cabin featuring four meticulously designed private suites aboard select Boeing 777-300ER aircraft. Combining French elegance with cutting-edge innovation, the Air France La Première Suite offers an unparalleled journey marked by privacy, comfort, and bespoke service. It aligns with the airline’s enhanced ground experience at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport, launched ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics.
A Masterpiece of Design and Functionality
Each La Première Suite spans nearly 3.5 square metres, offering 25% more space than its predecessor. The suite’s centrepiece is a multi-functional seat and chaise lounge that seamlessly converts into a two-metre-long lie-flat bed (75cm wide), dressed in plush ergonomic padding and exclusive bedding. Developed over three years, the seat adapts to every phase of travel—takeoff, dining, relaxation, or sleep—with an embossed leather headrest showcasing Air France’s historic winged seahorse emblem, a nod to the airline’s heritage.
Privacy is paramount, with floor-to-ceiling curtains and a full-height, electric sliding partition between central suites, allowing companions to share the experience while maintaining solitude. A harmonious palette of soft greys, accented by haute couture-inspired red touches and leather-trimmed finishes, creates a refined ambience.
Innovative Storage and Intuitive Technology
Floor-level storage solutions replace overhead compartments: a sliding drawer fits two carry-on bags, while a second drawer under the chaise lounge holds footwear. A personal compartment with a backlit mirror and an individual wardrobe add practicality. Guests enjoy dual 32-inch 4K screens, offering 1,500+ hours of entertainment, accessible from the seat, chaise, or bed. A wireless touchscreen tablet controls seat adjustments, lighting, window shades, and entertainment, ensuring a seamless, personalised experience.
Culinary Excellence and Elevated Service
The La Première Suite experience extends to Michelin-starred dining curated by renowned chefs, paired with sommelier-selected wines and Champagne. Dedicated flight attendants cater to every need, from pre-departure amenities to customised meal schedules.
Exclusivity From Ground to Sky
The journey begins with private check-in, chauffeured transfers, and access to Air France’s La Première lounges at Paris-CDG, featuring gourmet dining, spa treatments, and serene workspaces. Benjamin Smith, CEO of Air France-KLM Group, emphasised the suite’s significance: “This new product positions Air France at the highest level worldwide, reflecting our commitment to excellence and exceptional customer journeys.
Progressive Rollout and Key Destinations
The first Boeing 777-300ER featuring the La Première Suite, named Épernay, will debut on Paris-New York (JFK) routes in spring 2025. In the summer of 2025, additional destinations, including Los Angeles (LAX), Singapore (SIN), and Tokyo-Haneda (HND), will follow.
