AF2518 is mainline DL. It appears to land at a normal jetbridge gate most days. (No promise though) Also like most DL flights it normally lands a bit early.
I wouldn't book this without having a plan just in case. In that regard theres always one, if not 2 AF metal flights to CDG after KLM flight to AMS. Thus I would'nt be worried about misconnecting. DL will simply put you on AF to CDG and then CDG-DUB.
