Any experience with the Air France lounge at Charles deGaulle airport?

It is a standard lounge. I think the star alliance lounge is nicer, there are larger areas to spread out and it has an outdoor area to get "fresh air" and smoke.

But then again the lounges are better than sitting with the masses paying for booze and food, so I wouldn't complain if I had to use the AF lounge instead. I'm just happy there is one good thing about CO joining the Star Alliance - a better lounge.

Thanks Cherrybomb. Am not a Star Alliance club member but have Delta so I'll be able to use the AF lounge. Even if it's not as good as the SA, better than sitting out in the open areas. Appreciate your comment.

The AF lounge is very quiet and has more private areas compared to the star alliance louge. It has that if not the great outdoors.

Hi corayesq,

Yes, it has free croissants and coffee and oj. If you are there early for a flight to the US, it's a good place to get the breakfast you need while you wait those two hours!

Which terminal? AF has lounges in each wing of 2F, one in the main 2E terminal, one in the satellite 2E terminal, one in 2D, and one in 2G.

In general, they are okay, but not really that special. The ones in 2E are the best of the bunch, but the 2F and 2D lounges are fine, as well (haven't tried the 2G lounge). In general, the AF lounges tend to be very quiet and they seem to offer a lot of private areas.

The drink selection is pretty good and is self-serve. Food is limited to relatively substantial snacks. Enough to hold you over, but not necessarily enough to replace a meal.

Thanks everyone! Flying out tomororw so I'll report back in a couple of weeks.
