Sunset flight back home! | TRIP REPORT | Air France Airbus A320 Paris CDG - Manchester ECONOMY

Hello everyone! Welcome to our channel and another of our trip reports, this time the return leg after a very enjoyable weekend in Paris for the 2025 Qatar Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe at Hippodrome ParisLongchamp.

Daryz and Mickael Barzalona won the big race for trainer Francis-Henri Graffard and owner The Aga Khan Studs SCEA. Just in case anyone was interested!

Join us as we fly from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport back to Manchester Airport on board one of their venerable Airbus A320 aircraft; safe to say this aircraft type does not have very long left in Air France service, as more A220s join the fleet, despite the ongoing engine problems blighting the A220 fleet worldwide.

Incidentally, if you have not seen our previous video, you may not be aware of the little poll we are running. We would like to ask a small favour from you; putting together a small vote, as we are looking to head back to Dubai in late March. But how we get there and back... that is the problem! We have narrowed it down to 3 potential trip reports, all in economy unless stated,

1. British Airways A320 and A380 outbound via Heathrow, Boeing 787-10 and Airbus A320 via Heathrow inbound,
2. Emirates A380 direct to DXB and return direct to Manchester Emirates A380,
3. Air France A220 and Boeing 777-300ER to Dubai via CDG, then Boeing 777-300ER (PREMIUM ECONOMY) and Airbus A220 back to Manchester via CDG.

We will run the vote until January 31st, so get your guesses in, drop them in the comments below, and you might just see your vote was the route we decided to do!

If you are not already aware either, we have big plans for 2026, however to achieve those plans, we would really appreciate the support, so if you could give this video a like and subscribe to the channel, it would really mean a lot!

See you tomorrow where we have a trip report coming from an airline we have not yet covered on the channel; more on that tomorrow!

Best wishes,

Jack & Tom Williams.
