Lufthansa is the way to go, if it's convenient

And affordable. And only if the Pilots happen not to be on strike. Last time I was to fly Lufthansa they were. What a nightmare. Haven't travelled with them since.

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

I think the chances of pilots being on strike are significantly higher in paris than they are in frankfurt

Lufthansa was the best airline i ever flown on...sanita was an international travel agent and it was 2nd to austraia airlines in customer satisfaction....the worst to me, british airlines over seas,,

all american airlines suck

True. They just happened to be on strike right the day that I was supposed to fly with them. Bad Luck!

Lufthansa is an excellent airline. No doubt about that.

Yup, Lufthansa the best.

I've never been to Paris, but my husband went through Charles de Gaulle. He flew Air France in and out of Paris on his way to the U.S., with barely an hour to make his connecting flight. This was his first time flying. He said everyone at CDG and also the Air France flight crews were so nice and helpful, and he had no problems at all. (Except Air France lost his luggage. But they found it again the next day.)

I agree Lufthansa is an excellent airline.

I met an elderly algerian guy in Tunis one time... had to wait 5 hours... because air france did not put his luggage on the plane....

Some people have problems with CDG. I would probably try to go through ORY instead.

But isn't ORY in France, too?

ORY is in Paris you mean... yeah, but it's a much smaller airport and probably not as confusing. But I've never been there

France, Paris, Paris, France. Ain't that all the same?

Not sure that CDG is all that confusing. It's just that they have the old and the new terminal. The old one is dull and, well, old while the new one doesn't seem to be, shall we say, structurally sound. It's a bit of "up the stairs, down the stairs, onto the bus and off the bus" and all that nonsense but the signage is pretty good. I mean, one can find the way fairly easily.

I don't think CDG is any more of a catastrophy than FRA or LHR. I actually thought LHR was much worse than CDG would ever be.

LHR is BAD! BAD! BAD!

London Gatwick (LGW) is GREAT!

I didn't like CDG and Schipol (AMS) is ENORMOUS, but a beautiful airport!

Gatwick detained me, I have nightmares, lol

Heathrow was fine, cept the security lady took SO MUCH TIME checking my purse that I almost missed the flight...oh, that and she sprayed my perfume on herself without asking

CDG was uneventful for me, btw.

NEVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER AGAINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!

Air France was horrible!!!! THey refused to escort us to our connecting flight at Charles De Gaulle airport to fly to Athens. When we finally got to our gate they had 4 Air France employees watching a couple argue and hold up the line. We all were frantically waiving our bording passes and they ignored us, then when they finally paid attention to us they refused us entry on the plane. They yelled at us that it was IMPOSSIBLE for us to board the plane. That we were LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So 6 of us were left behind. We had to wait in the airport for 4 hours to take a flight to Milan Italy (not where we were going) to get another connecting flight back to Athens. We had to call the hotel to tell them we would be late, not to give up our room.

We were supposed to be in Athens at 4 pm and didn't arrive until 1:00 AM the next morning. AND THEY LOST OUR LUGGAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No compensation. We didn't get our luggage until the 3rd day in Athens. We wrote a complaint letter, gave them receipts of purchases of clothing, toileteries, etc. we had to purchase. And we got nothing, NOTHING in return. They stated it wasn't their fault that Air Atalia lost our luggage!!!!!!

SO, I say DON'T DO IT IF YOU CAN AVOID IT!!!

I never had any kind of problem there so for me it was good enough

[Melo 1]

I have never had any trouble at CDG - donc je n'ai rien a dire.

I have flown to South Africa and America with Air France and had no problems. The Building alteration at CDG are a bit of a pain as you get bussed everywhere and it causes delays otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed flying with Air France.

Lufthansa and KLM are both excellent. Although the staff at Frankfurt can be very rude at 5 am in the morning! We all got chased out of the waiting area whilst we were waiting for a connecting flight. Apparently the lounges dont open that early. No idea where they expected a whole plane load of people to sit.
