Air France Update:
The Good: No nuts of any kind were served. The flight crew was aware of DS and very solicitous of him.
The Bad: The Allergen-free meals (free of Top 9) are only available on International flights that originate at Charles DeGaulle airport, which we knew.
The More Bad: Despite confirming and re-confirming, they didn't have his special meal on the return flight. Not a tragedy since we a) weren't counting on it, and b) didn't trust that he would actually eat it. He was well stocked with Tanabars and some plain yogurt, but it would have been nice if they had a safe snack for him.
The Random: Air France has clearly fallen from it's position of the "Glamour Airline" that it was back in the 80's when they were one of our clients. The planes were old and decrepit, dirty and service while service in the air was generally good, the ground crew was horrendous. LOT Polish on the other hand, which we flew within Poland was fabulous. Very impressive on all ends. And no nuts on board either.
