Air France's long haul business class seat is called Affaires. The seat name has remained the same even though the actual product has undergone some improvements as new aircraft are introduced to the fleet.
At its most 'basic', the seat has a pitch of 61 inches (155cm) that extends into a bed length of 74 inches (188cm). Seat angle is 171 degrees, i.e. nine degrees from fully-flat, while entertainment can be individually controlled and passengers have the ability to stop and start films. There is a power source available. The Inflight Entertainment (IFE) differs according to how recently the aircraft has entered service, since Air France has upgraded its IFE to include Audio and Video on Demand (AVOD)
On the newer B777 aircraft, the new Affaires seat is slightly more spacious than the previous version. This new seat can be converted into a bed that is shaped to
the contours of your body. The bed extends to two metres in length and stretches width-ways from 20-24 inches (50.8 to 61cm), thanks to the armrest that
automatically lowers when you adjust the seat to bed position. The seat is 'practically' horizontal (ie: lie flat, rather than fully flat).
This convertible bed-seat also has a 10.4-inch (26cm) interactive video screen, a PC outlet, an individual telephone and a fibre-optic reading light.

The flight boarding was realy confusing as the flight was delayed and the airline ground staff is still not... more
