Cheer up! At least you're flying directly into Genoa ... but I would also be mad at the TA ...

No, sorry, fare class A is Discounted Economy on intra european flights. The Brit Air operated flight will have a Premium Economy ("Tempo Challenge") section - but not for A fares. (Some reservation systems show A = First as a default, but AF is a different story ...)

Well ... not for Discounted Economy. AF allows the use of the business lounge for Premium Economy in Paris. Probably you could upgrade (for money!) to Premium Economy - but in your case this is of little help as you still need to get to T2G which has no lounge at all. I've never heard of an airside transfer, but I might be wrong about this, so you would have to landside arriving in T2A, then go to an airside lounge in T2E, then go landside and transfer to T2G ...
Given your situation I would advise going directly to T2G, making sure you have some change in Euros and buy some coffee at the airside bar in T2G.
