The number “777” made a surprising surge on Google Trends today, leaving many people curious about the reason behind the sudden spike. The answer is not a secret code or hidden event it’s connected to a major upgrade in global air travel driven by Air France’s powerful Boeing 777-300ER fleet.
The trend is linked directly to the Boeing 777-300ER, as Air France has announced a significant expansion of long-haul routes using this aircraft. The airline is rolling out more flights equipped with its premium La Première service to four new cities: Atlanta (ATL), Boston (BOS), Houston (IAH), and Tel Aviv (TLV).
This expansion greatly boosts Air France’s presence on these routes from Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG). With upgraded 777-300ERs taking over more long-haul operations, passengers can expect a new level of luxury, including redesigned La Première suites and refreshed business-class cabins.
As expected, social media caught on quickly, pushing the term “777” to the top of search trends as travellers looked for information on the airline’s upgraded premium experience.
According to Aviation A2Z, this expansion increases the La Première network by 40%, marking a major strategic shift. Air France plans to continue deploying more of its four-cabin 777-300ERs on high-demand destinations over the coming months as additional aircraft with updated interiors enter service.

Air France Unveils Its Ultra-Luxurious The First Suite
Air France has also unveiled the first details of its new La Première experience, offering travelers a fully customizable, spacious private suite with high-end finishes.
These suites will be available on select Boeing 777-300ERs beginning this spring. Expect lavish features such as expansive windows, a two-meter-long bed, and personalized service.
Air France-KLM Group CEO Benjamin Smith called the launch “a major step” in the airline’s strategy, emphasizing its commitment to providing “state-of-the-art products” and positioning Air France among the world’s best carriers.
The new suites complement the recently introduced La Première private ground experience at Paris–Charles de Gaulle Airport.
