Mattress Pads Now Available in Air France Business Class

First announced months ago, Air France has accelerated the rollout of its new business class mattress pads. They’re now available on all long-haul flights to and from Paris’s Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG), regardless of duration.

Developed in partnership with Accor‘s Sofitel brand, the Sofitel MY BED mattress pad can be easily fitted to all of Air France’s business class seats, whether you’re flying on the Boeing 777 or 787, or the Airbus A330 or A350. Passengers will find the mattress pad waiting for them at their seat, along with a pillow, a blanket, and a pair of slippers.
