CDG La Premiere Lounge - Guest Access Policy?
Hi all. I’ll be flying from LHR-SFO via CDG later this week in La Premiere, and I have a nice layover at CDG. That means I’ll have a fair amount of time in the La Premiere lounge. As it happens, my partner will be transiting CDG at the same time with a similar layover (also on AF, not in La Premiere, and not the same flights).
Does anyone know the details/policy about having him join me in the lounge? It seems straightforward (I let them know what’s going on, he checks in at the desk, and then comes in once I’m there). But any advice or insight is welcome.
Many thanks.

The policy for this lounge is that you can have a guest but he/she should travel on the same flight as you (in J, W or Y).

wallertown, the page you are quoting might not be up to date. For example, they still don't list any lounge for TLS, while AF pax in TLS are allowed to access the airport lounge.
As Goldorak said, we would enjoy a first-hand experience that could testify which information is the right one. So feel free to try
And expect the worst case scenario of enjoying the lounge alone, it will still be a great experience.

Did you show them the language they have live on the internet saying otherwise? I’m curious what they had to say about that.

Because the La Première lounge page doesn't seem to contain the text reproduced above - and I got to this page by following the link given above, and can't find that text anywhere!
Typing that text into Google also doesn't lead to any Air France page! : http://bfy.tw/J7Jv

Can you show me where it is "Live" on the internet that the La Première lounge accepts guests on any AF flight?
