La Premičre lounge is located in 2E-K and is subjected to special rules for access (P pax on AF-operating flights only, or capacity-controlled paid access for J pax flying on an AF-operating flight without P class).

- ME, DL, VN, CZ, MU, RO, AM, KE, KQ depart from T2E and use AF lounges.

Correct… A real pity…

New lounges are under construction at level 6 in the area of gates by 200-225. Hope there will be an AF lounge or Skyteam lounge.

Last time I was there (march), there was some construction on-going where the lounge was. I wonder if this lounge still exists in fact. Please have a look and tell us.

I flew ORD-CDG on 18 October and can confirm that Air France is using the Swissport lounge, which is even less impressive than former AF lounge. It does have bathrooms, unlike AF, but is windowless and cramped and food/drink are pretty dismal.

MRS lounge is still closed. It should reopen after construction works, but the agent could not tell me when that would happen.
I was offered 5000 miles as compensation, which is very cool.

According to the wiki, a lounge access in France outside Paris costs 6000 miles, so yes it's a good deal!

As I was in the car approaching JFK T1, I could see people sitting in the AF lounge upstairs business-class-only section. So I got excited about having a nice hot meal and enjoying the upscale beverages.

Unfortunately when I arrived I found that although the upstairs is open again, the JFK lounge no longer has a business-class-only section. No hot meals. Just some pre-packaged sandwiches and not the usual level of drinks. On the plus side they do have Taittinger Cuvee Prestige Champagne. I've had worse sparking wine in airport lounges. Like here at the DL Skyclub in T4.

If the work inside is connected to the work outside, we are a very long way from being finished: there is massive ongoing work going ahead in the area where the old bus station used to be located, which corresponds broadly to the area of the terminal were the lounge was. I suspect that we are talking months. TBH, if they gave (give?) a voucher for a coffee/pastry or drink/snack instead, that would be not much worse than before as the old lounge was awful.
