Dear Zoe,<BR><BR>First, I would avoid Air France and Charles de Gaulle Airport at all costs. Second, you would do better to post this question on the forum for the Airlines. Good luck!<BR>

Zoe

Hi Sandy,<BR>Why should I avoid Air France and CDG?<BR>Please tell me.

Tough choice, but you best bet in British Airways. They have good service (even is "good service" exists)

Take a flight via London. Total trip time will be shorter compared to transiting at Paris. (too far South)<BR>Both Heathrow and CDG are not ideal for transiting, but do-able. Air Canada will connect at LHR with British Midland which are fine. Is the direct KLM flight much more expensive?

Hi Zoe:<BR>I have done Air France and British Airways.<BR>I preferred British Airways because the connection time was shorter.<BR>Have a great trip!

British Airways has lost my wife's luggage AND my daughter's luggage on two separate flights. Heathrow is a mess, confusing, crowded, and occasionally BA will book a flight that arrives at Gatwick and then a departing connection from Heathrow, and it is up to you to get there. KLM was wonderful in my flight from Amsterdam to Seattle last week, and I have always found them to be personable and helpful.
