Paid access options for AF lounges are displayed after the lounge list.

EUROPE

    • Terminal 2F (Schengen)
    • Terminal 2G (Schengen) : More info here.

La Première lounge is located in 2E-K and is subjected to special rules for access (P pax on AF-operating flights only, or capacity-controlled paid access for J pax flying on an AF-operating flight without P class). Lounge-hopping is not allowed in CDG.

Any data points (even just within mainland) would be appreciated!
I once flew TPE-HKG on China Airlines and had access to their flagship lounge in TPE. It was only that domestic XP were credited

Hi yes it was me but I ended up just flying DL down to MEX to catch the AF J flight. They did let me in to the D1 check in b/c of the same day AF J flight so that was good.

As far as AM J I will be doing that this Friday so I can report back. Now with the AF lounge open I will go check it out and really hope to get in for breakfast & a shower there. I will also try the D1 check in to see if that is allowed and then just go thru the private security, up to the lounge and leave for AF.

Do Aeromexico customers flying J from LAX get access to the new Air France lounge? Asking because at SFO I got denied entry flying AM J earlier this year.

Got in no issues. Don’t even have to say anything, it scanned in good.

I did get denied at D1 check in but not a huge deal.

Really liked the lounge. Food was decent and better than what I saw and tried at the Sky Club before heading to Bradley. Cheese selection was better and not stale bread so that was good. Shrimp was solid too w a nice dressing w good flavour and acidity.

Lounge was so clean and also the staff were super nice and you could clearly see they cared and were going out of their way to make everyone’s experience the best.

They are down a shower as it doesn’t drain at all as in like water was everywhere. So w only 1 working shower there was a long queue. I would think even w 2 it’s not enough but I dunno. Water temp btw was good not as hot as the *A or KAL lounges but 10 degrees hotter than the Sky club showers.

Overall a very pleasant experience but what’s up w how slow those segways go. Must be 3 mph. I got off and walked.

And I meant to quote Businesselite25 from one above my earlier post but I quoted myself instead and can’t change that. Guess it doesn’t really matter anyways w the quote feature is no longer working.

Thanks for the update!! We are looking forward to it.
the tunnel is really a killer.. are you referring to the carts or the moving walkways? I’ve considered getting dropped off at T1 and taking the bus over to TBIT West if we don’t have anything to check in…

If I had got a ride w a golf cart that would have been amazing. In April I lucked out and got a golf cart ride from the Sky Club to Bradley but apparently now Bradley is all those segways/scooters that where the driver stands behind you. They are even advertising for rides when you come down the first escalators from the main Bradley terminal. They are making runs from there to the elevator for the Air France lounge. It was painfully slow and void of that amazing breeze you get w a golf cart ride.

Was not aware they had busses anymore. DL bussing no more due to the walkway being open I assumed.

You should try the D1 check in, maybe you will have better luck than me. I still don’t know if AM J is supposed to get you in or if they were correct in denying me.

Sorry, I should have posted this here yesterday. Do Air France manage their own lounge in Singapore SIN, or is it a contract lounge?
