Thanks everyone for reporting back!
Yeah based on the pictures, except that sculpture thing in the back, I would have never guessed there had been a "renovation". But good to know it's back in business!

What would happen if you short check-- only check bags to CDG? Plenty of personnel in the US will not notice if you don't tell them you have an onward connection. Can you then show up at the lounge after arrival?

P.S. I assume car service has returned?

The car service was available even with Covid lounge, at least when departing from L gates. The truth is the walk from Schengen gate to lounge with escort wasn't really first class experience but they paid it in Krug so I was happy.

Delta will almost always allow you to short check if your connection in CDG is 6 hours+. But if you check in with AF they mostly won’t allow it unless its overnight or you have a very compelling reason. Regardless, if it works you would probably be met at the aircraft and driven to the lounge. (Treatment like any connecting passenger). Or you could tell them your bags were short checked, and then pick them up, put them in storage and show up at the lounge, where you would have access due to your connecting flight.

Do we expect a brand new menu in the lounge with Alain Ducasse leaving the Plaza Athénée at end of June? ​​​​​​

Wanted to book a massage for my next P trip early June
I got confirmation from TA that the spa is still closed and AF is taking the opportunity to start a collaboration with a new brand.

Hope we'll be able to enjoy these services very soon

Potentially yes, but it is a little early to know what impacts could be...

Is it still possible to receive a "La Première" luggage tag or passport cover or notebook in the P lounge? I read about this in pre-Covid times but apparently it was very difficult to obtain these items back then.

You just need to ask nicely when you first get there. You may or may not receive it when you leave. Sort of a crap shoot but there's no harm in asking. I asked for the luggage tag on my one and only visit and got a nice bag filled with goodies when leaving. This was quite a few years ago though.

It was impossible to get anything during Covid at K temporary lounge as they had no stock there.
We might expect to get goodies with P lounge reopening but I would give them a few weeks so they can be prepared

OK Thanks a lot for the info. It is very puzzling that these "goodies" are available on request only and depending on certain "factors". I will report the outcome on my visit on Saturday but am not expecting to get anything as I am on an upgraded ticket.
