GVA - Genève Cointrin

I don't remember if we had pictures here of AFKL GVA lounge since the renovation (no link from the wiki), so here are mines

Name of the lounge : GVA AF/KL lounge

Location : French sector, near gates F, upstairs. The lounge has 2 entrances : one the French side (used usually by AF pax) and one on the Swiss side (usually used by KL pax). Note 09/21 : Most of the France sector is closed for renovation work. For a period of 4 months, all operations are from the Swiss side (AF checkin counters, security checkpoint). During that period the lounge is accessible only from the Swiss side.



Opening Hours : unknown, but likely linked to 1st and last AFKL flights

Entry requirements : usual AFKL/ST requirements.

Food offer : I was there in the morning at non-meal times. Food offering was very limited : French pastries under plastic , carrot salad, cereals, a few (non-inspiring) sandwiches, yoghourts. Don't know if the offering is better at meal times.

Drinks offer : white and red wines, liquors, soft drinks, water fountain (no more individual bottles). No Champagne (may be proposed at later times ?)
