You were indeed lucky with lounge access as 2 out of 3 airport lounges are still closed (Blue Lounge and Business Lounge) and the airport operator Vinci/ANA could not care less.

I also share your observation regarding bus gates: Easyjet often gets a jetbridge while TP stands are mainly bus gates.

Even worse if you are a local TP passenger you have to walk through the entire terminal to exit while low cost passengers including Easyjet are driven directly to the baggage claim.

TP and ANA write a playbook how not to do it, so many more examples. It will be for sure better with the new airport, NOT.
