La Première: Privacy, Technology, and Unmatched Comfort

The revamped La Première experience offers an individual suite with five windows and a unique design that blends luxury, functionality, and privacy. Each module is fully customizable and features:

An ergonomic seat with adjustable comfort foam

A chaise longue that transforms into a two-meter-long bed

Floor-to-ceiling opaque curtains for an intimate atmosphere

Passengers can enjoy two 32-inch 4K anti-glare screens, over 1,500 hours of entertainment, noise-canceling headphones, and the option to connect their own devices via Bluetooth.

Additionally, each suite includes 110V/220V power outlets, USB-A and USB-C ports, wireless charging, a holder for mobile devices or tablets, and a wireless touchscreen control to manage lighting, seat position, and window shades.

A Seamless Experience from Lounge to Landing

The luxury begins on the ground with access to exclusive lounges and continues onboard with menus crafted by Michelin-starred chefs, a selection of fine wines and champagnes, and an environment designed for relaxation. Every detail is tailored to ensure an uninterrupted journey with the utmost comfort.

Global Expansion in 2025 and 2026

The new La Première cabin will be progressively rolled out on other Boeing 777-300ERs operating routes to Los Angeles, Singapore, and Tokyo-Haneda during the summer of 2025. Starting in 2026, it will be available on all routes offering this class and on additional aircraft.

With this move, Air France reinforces its presence in the premium travel segment, combining cutting-edge technology, elegant design, and French hospitality in every aspect of the journey.
