AirFrance vs. SwissAir Business class

I have 2 for 1 certificates through Amex for business class travel from JFK to Nice, and return to JFK from Paris.

My choice is AirFrance to Paris in Business, then coach to Nice.
or SwissAir to Zurich, and then on to Nice, both in business class.
Can anyone compare/contrast these two airlines for quality/comfort?

The fare is within 50 dollars, so cost is not a consideration.
THANKS

If I am NOT too late in answering, pick SWISS in business. It's a no brainer. Just better service in general. The Airbus business class seats are just fine, too. Nearly as flat as a bed (176 deg. or so).

We used air france business many times. AF delivers fabulous service each time. We used swiss only once and it was ok. Air France, hands down.

I'm not familiar with AF in business but I recently flew Swiss in business from London to Mumbai and I was quite impressed I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
