With Only One Friggin' Week to Go, Air France Wants Info

OMG, after all this time, we're down to one week! And I still have 2 hefty days of work left this week......I am trying to multi-task, keeping an eye on work and its dying computer, the house, the bills due this month, my malaria meds and the various and sundry things left on my list to do. I got an email today from Air France stating they needed some info. It turns out they just wanted my passport info, but buried way below, and only in FRENCH of course was the option to upgrade your meal, and it has to be chosen NOW. Only in FRENCH. Lucky for me, I took French in HS and some in college and used to be pretty good at it. Shown here is the upgrade traditional meal, only 18 Euros more (about $22 ). Of course it has pate, bread, fig chutney, whatever a pousse d'epinard is (don't have time to look it up), duck OF COURSE (this is France, LOL), cheese and some sort of chocolate dessert. On a plane, for that much $$$? Below: listed as their "Bio" meal, it is non-meat. Only 22 Euros ($30). It has a salad, salmon, goat cheese, raisin salad for dessert. Don't think so even if I do subscribe to the alcohol-fish-swim diet.

Here is the FREE meal. Something hot it says. HA!!! with a piece of bread, and cheese and chosen perhaps by the country of your destination. Maybe it's the last good meal I'll get for 30 days, but I think I'll go with the free and spend the $$ somewhere else, perhaps the plane FRENCH wine.

Buried somewhere else in the website, is an opportunity to deal with your fear-of-flying. There is featured here an anti-stress workshop that includes a diagnostic interview with a flight stress specialist ?????mental health professional ?????(you mean like me after I've eaten that puny free FRENCH meal and spent my $22 on the FRENCH wine?), a course to familiarize yourself with the aircraft, a session in the flight simulator, and information about your particular flight. I didn't see the price listed. I am sure it is not free. For me, I'd rather spend it on the FRENCH IN FLIGHT WINE.......
