I'm still a loyal customer regardless of the things you have change on the website which, in my opinion, have been changed for the worse. For instance, now to book a flight the choice states the price as "from £..." and when you click it's a lot more expensive than you thought it was. Then, in order to look for the real price you have to go one by one instead of having the whole selection by date and real price at once of almost the whole month as it used to be. Also, now it's more confusing with the choice of light, standard and flex. If you go by the price and click on light, it tells you you cannot buy luggage at this point so you don't know how much it's going to cost you afterwards. By then, you change your first choice and look for another date or price. If you change your mind and try to go back to the first choice, invariable it is more expensive than the first time you clicked on it. I don't think you are really trying to get the best service for the customer but you do manage to confuse and alienate them.

The webpage for paying via Visa debit wouldn't load properly, so had to pay via PayPal for which there is a charge. Also, my partner booked her ticket on the App and was quoted a cheaper price than my online booking for exactly the same date and trip, how is this fair!

Unable to rectify ticket purchase error within 5 minutes

Whilst booking my ticket online somehow the date got changed and I bought tickets for wrong date. I realised within 5 minutes and contacted Air France on WhatsApp. They refused to let me change dates. Other airlines allow you to correct mistakes made within a 1 hr or 24 hr window. I think this is very poor customer service from Air France

Every time I have contacted Air France customer service department since 23/03/2022 I have found them to be incompetent. I have had a problem since 23/03/2022 which was caused by a member of staff not doing something when I tried to move a flight because of a friend getting Covid-19 just before flights to Costa Rica. Their policy at the time was that you could move flights up to the day before flying. We moved the flight to the beginning of 2023, being told that we could move them again when we knew the dates we wanted. When we tried to do so in April we were told it couldn't be done as my friend was a 'no show'. Since then I have spent 30 to 40 hours trying to solve this problem either by email or on the phone. Every time I have thought I had it sorted it was not. I have found that the Air France customer service department can not or do not forward the emails I have sent to the correct department even though we have sent them to the email address we were told to by a member of staff. I/we have done everything we have been asked to do but still have not had a satisfactory solution to this problem. I have now contacted Aviation ADR to try to solve our problem. Yesterday I contacted Air France customer service department to book flights to Costa Rica. Yet again I was given misinformation and what should have been a simple task, as I knew what flights I wanted, took over an hour.

Missing!!! Where are air France Customer Services?

Where are air France Customer Services? Absolutely appalling service which required me to stand next to a check in desk for 4 hours to use up the time for the check in to close and then claim I was a no show. Absolutely disgusting! To be directed to a customer services board showing a contact numbe because the check in staff were not interested in resolving my ticket change. To a number that then sent a link to give you the same number.. Where are your customer services? I spoke to a what's app option. Not interested in resolving the ticket change. No option to actually speak to a person. I have used air France for many of my personal and business trips in the past. Never again ! This has been one really negative experience deliberately designed to avoid direct customer service interaction.

Travel ruined as flight not confirmed and no one to contact

I booked and paid for a flight on line yesterday evening but was unable to check in and create an account as the Air France website was down all night and this morning. On arrival at 4.00 this morning, for the 5.55 flight, I was told I had no ticket as the booking did not go through. This caused me considerable stress, losing a day of work, having to wait all day at the airport to fly out this evening with Ethiopian Airlines instead. Such a shame as I have flown with Air France before, albeit a long time ago, when there were people to talk to on the end of a phone... I stupidly thought confirmation meant I had a seat as I paid on line. I only hope the funds were not authorised into Air France. The staff on the counter was not especially helpful either and unsympathetic.

Tres decue

Je vous ecris car, Lors de l`achat de mon billet Air France, a la suite de la greve de Eurostar, Vendredi 1er Dec le matin jài eu une tres mauvaise experience. Au moment de payer mon vol premierement cotise a 250pounds a chaque occasion que j`essayais de valider mon achat mon paiement etait refusè et le tarrif a augmentait 4 fois jusqu`a 680 pounds qui ète varaiemnt trop elevè et je nàvais pas le choix de partir a une autre date et Air France a profite de cette greve de train pour faire payer ces clients habituels une somme exhorbitante. En plus vous m`avez reserve sur 2 vols additionals èronès. J`ai volè sur le vol du 5:35PM et vous màvez booke sur le 1:45pm et sur le 19h:35. Tres decu par cette experience air france, Sandra Chollet

Website not working and had to pay telephone booking fee

I was trying to book a multi destination flight, when trying to get to the payment page online, an error popped up. I had to call the customer service who made a temporary booking with an additional fee which made me very upset as I was paying for the fact that your website was not working and they told me that I can call back anytime to pay as the customer service is open 24/7. I called on Sunday at 6:30pm and to my surprise, the customer service was closed. I had to contact an agent on WhatsApp which solved the issue but I would have liked to be able to pay directly at the online price without an additional fee and be told the correct information regarding the opening hours of the call center.

Reference PR4JVD I bought two tickets for my children and two Youth Passes (Carte Jeune). These say a free hold baggage item is included in their fares. It wasn't. I now have to pay extra. This was misleading. Also, the Carte Jeune/Youth Pass only applies to AF flights, but half the flights were with KLM. This is unfair. There is also supposed to be a discount. This wasn't indicated when booking. There is also an extra charge for each seat for each flight for 'Youth Pass' holders. This cancels out any discount. Lastly, there seems to be no general complaint area in the 'Contact Us' section, so I haven't been able to contact AF about these issues. I am really disappointed.

No way to speak to a human being who knows anything and can give good useful information. Cheap labour used in other parts of the world where the people have no clue what you are talking about and have such strong accents they cannot be understood. Can't spell English words and names accurately so ticket is null and void for travel. Misinform about connection times and when traveling with a dog. I need up educating the agent about the flights! I then bought a ticket and immediately had to refund it. If I could use another airline I would. KLM even worse.

AF cancelled my reservation but forgot to tell me

After confirming my reservation via email, apparently AF cancelled the reservation they claim due to the credit card not approving the transaction - but even if true, AF failed to notify me and I only learned of this when I went to check in for the flight. Having this happen the Friday before Christmas put our entire holiday plans at risk - unbelievably poor processes and inexcusable.. We had to purchase new tickets on a different flight as our flight was now sold out - they were more expensive but at least there was availability on the same day.
