Prologue:

Being based in LA and with relatives in Europe, it's much easier/cheaper to buy the ticket from Europe.
My trip started in LUX but did not bother doing a report.

I used to be Platinum with AF and ditched the FFP when my company made me fly extensively with US with AA.

The reason why I picked KL and AF is purely on the fare paid.

Let's begin my first report with Youtripreport !

I arrived late in the lounge knowing I won't miss a lot.

The breakfast buffet is a joke.

I finished my meal here and decided to rest.

Last meal before landing. I would have hoped something more substantial. However the taste was there.

Summary:

After the flight I understand why I left Skyteam.

Even if the flight from LAX to CDG was much better despite the sliding seat.

The catering and the lounge are both to blame.

I will shortly review Qatar Airways from DOH to LAX.
