Important information regarding AFKL lounge in IAD (Washington Dulles), obtained from lounge attendants. For those who know this lounge, you know that is is chronically overcrowded and too small in the afternoon/evening with the 2 AF flights (including one A380) and the KL flight. From end October for approx 3-4 months, the lounge will be closed for renovation and extension to the lower level under the current lounge. In the mean time, the P pax will likely use the VS lounge (to be confirmed). But for J pax, they don’t have any solution at the moment as all other lounges already operate at max capacity. So it is likely that they will give some vouchers to be used in the concourse cafes/restaurant. Certainly not ideal, but I don’t really see what else they can do. |
Paid access for AF lounges
AF has increased the price for paid access for AF lounges in CDG 2E K/L/M : from 45 to 50 EUR, as of today (17 OCT 2018). I thought it could be good to summarize the paid access prices for AF-branded lounges worldwide. Please see below. I have also added this in the wiki.
Please don't ask me about consistency between prices in cash and in miles between the different lounges ;) FRANCE - CDG 2C (arrival lounge) : 50 EUR between 5 :30 am and 10 am. 35 EUR from 10 am - CDG 2E K/L/M : 50 EUR or 8000 miles - CDG 2F : 35 EUR or 8000 miles - CDG 2G : 35 EUR or 8000 miles - ORY hall 2 : 25 EUR or 6000 miles - ORY hall 3 : 35 EUR or 6000 miles - BOD : 25 EUR or 6000 miles - LYS : 25 EUR or 6000 miles EUROPE - TXL : 25 EUR or 6000 miles - FRA : 25 EUR or 6000 miles - MUC : 25 EUR or 6000 miles - STR : 25 EUR or 6000 miles - GVA : 40 CHF or 6000 miles NORTH AMERICA - BOS : 35 USD or 6000 miles - JFK : 50 USD or 6000 miles - IAD : 50 USD or 6000 miles - ORD : 40 USD or 6000 miles - IAH : 35 USD or 6000 miles - SFO : 50 USD or 6000 miles - YYZ : 35 CAD or 6000 miles - YUL : ? APAC - BKK : 1000 THB or 6000 miles AFRICA / MIDDLE EAST - DLA : 30 EUR or 6000 miles - DXB : 35 EUR or 6000 miles (personal comment from Goldorak: not sure this is still valid for the Skyteam lounge. It can be an outdated information about the former AF lounge) - CAI : 25 EUR or 6000 miles (personal comment from Goldorak: not sure this is still valid as there is no more AF lounge in CAI) CARRIBEAN / INDIAN OCEAN - PTP : 30 EUR or 6000 miles - FDF : 25 EUR or 6000 miles - RUN : 30 EUR or 6000 miles |
Is this price for any passenger or only Y passenger with FB Silver / ST Elite status?
I wonder how to adapt the wiki template in order to include this price information, as I might forget about it on my very next review. Also, should we highlight the fact that a given lounge includes a reserved area for some customers, i.e. Ultimate? :) |

Charging 25 euros for accessing the "lounge" at LYS is criminal :D

Has the AF lounge been permanently closed at IAH? If so where do AF Business Class passengers go for lounge access?

Oops, didn't see it was about IAH and not IAD.

A google search for the Air France salon lounge at IAH pulls up the comment “permanently closed”! |
Can anyone confirm the closing time and the presence or absence of showers at the Air France-KLM lounge at SFO? The AF site says it closes at 8:30 pm, while PP says it closes at 11:15 pm; the AF site doesn't mention showers, while I read a review that said "the showers are nice." Thanks.

Today, LYS lounge dragon still talked about opening in December.
Also, current patio lounge does not accept anymore guests during peak hours, due to capacity constraints. |
BOD : AF lounge (more info here). AF seems also to sometimes use another lounge for pax going to other destinations than Paris. I might do a BOD->LYS flight in a few months, on dinner time, so it would be a nice occasion to either check the food options at the AF lounge, or find out about that mysterious bonus lounge. |
All times are GMT -6. The time now is 3:01 pm. |
