AF gates in Atlanta?

I've searched this forum and the Delta forum (and flightstats & flightaware) and can't find historical data on which gates AF uses in Atlanta. Can anyone guide me to that information?

I'm assuming they'll use F international terminal? I'm on DL8517/AF681 in September and have some short connections so trying to do my best to figure out gates ahead of time. Or at least terminals

Upon arrival at CDG, I am flying on to LIS - so I'm guessing I'll arrive at 2E and depart 2F?

Thanks for any guidance!!!

AF uses gates E & F in ATL. As for your connection, yes, you will arrive at 2E and depart from 2F.

I haven't seen AF using E gates since F has opened, but I might be wrong. In F concourse, when you go up from the train, they are always on the far right. I think it's gate F2 or around.

Whenever I have been in ATL I have always seen AF's planes in F as well.

You should check the monitor when you arrive in ATL as any change can happen, but if connecting I find F actually better than E, even if it's an additional train stop. E is a long terminal without moving walkways, so if you are at the either end it's quite a walk. F is fairly compact.

Thanks for the input - the ATL website had said they use F gates (didn't see E mentioned, so...) I do have some time in Atlanta - was actually trying to see which lounge I want to try CDG is where I'll have tighter connections - in both directions. But I should have Skypriority lane access so hopefully I'll be able to make it.

I thought that a couple years ago I was able to find historical gate information from one of the flight tracker websites, but I haven't been able to find it in the past couple days. Ah well.....

Oddly - I've arrived at ATL from international flights but I haven't departed there in years if ever. Usually we're flying out of JFK for CDG, or I'm using DTW and heading for China for work. Should be fun to use new (to me) terminals.

I also find the F lounge has better ambience. Plus it has an outside deck.
