Air France review by Katherine

Two of our 3 flights were on Air France.
Cabin crew were polite and attentive.
The flights, however, both encountered problems.
FIRST flight:
Towards end of the flight the cabin crew is giving detailed instructions to the exit row passengers. One of our row mates clocks that there are emergency crews, including a fire trunk, on the runway. We land safely, but the emergency crews follow our plane to its parking place. The pilot tells us that we experienced “technical difficulties”. Handled professionally, but it was still scary. I wonder why the cabin crew waited until there was an actual problem to give instructions to the exit row people?
SECOND flight:
Night landing. Clouds, but not many. Plane gets closer to the runway we suddenly hear the engines get louder and feel the plane pull strongly upwards. The pilots were aborting the landing. Second attempt was good.
Both of these flights occurred on the same day.
We will be choosing other carriers in the future.
