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).
    • Terminal 2C : arrival lounge, located landside at the extreme right of the terminal, after the last check-in counter, just before the corridor leading to 2A. This lounge has specific access rules and there is a specific thread about this lounge. This lounge is definitely closed. No arrival lounge facility is currently available for AF/Skyteam pax ending their journey in CDG (usual lounges are still available for transit pax).
Note that, among Skyteam partners :

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

Unless I'm wrong, Puerta del sol in T3 is not used for AF pax but for UX flights departing from T3. AF flights depart from T1 and so are directed to Cibeles lounge.

Sorry, KLM flights depart from T3.

It would probably be good to add 1) entry requirements (see brunos's point), 2) loungers/sleep area, 3) view (a personal pet topic!), 4) opening hours. Also some elements might not fit pre-established criteria (eg multi floors, terrace, smoking area, direct boarding etc). Decor might be quite subjective/hard to characterise but why not indeed!
