Just got admitted in CDG QR lounge on upgraded ticket (before February 5th), no questions asked. Currently enjoying full diner, that lounge is really nice and the staff super friendly. Probably my favourite lounge...

The outside terraces in summer overlooking the airport are also really wonderful if you're an avgeek!

This is very niche I admit, but as of today I can confirm what I've long hoped - a BA Club Europe boarding pass grants access to QR's CDG lounge if you happen to be airside in Terminal 1 already. The agent manning the entrance looked very confused by the fact I was there, but the computer said yes after entering my boarding pass details and I enjoyed a nice second breakfast of shakshuka after my QR flight this morning whilst waiting for BA307 instead of being stuck with the poor breakfast options in the CX lounge.

I'm afraid not, access is based on holding a boarding pass for a departing oneworld flight in J/F class only. If you are on a LATAM flight departing from Terminal 1 in J and are around at the time when the lounge is open you should be able to get access, however. Emerald status is irrelevant for QR lounges (other than the two frequent flyer lounges in Doha).

Last month, my SO (no OW status) and I (then OW Safire; now OW Emerald via QR's FF program) were provided access cards at check-in on Qmiles upgraded J seats . This was briefly challenged by the lounge dragon when her system denied access during the BP scan. However, she called someone over the phone and we were welcomed in. Not sure if this is a one-off or if its a rule change. No such luck at the AM in DOH.

I don't remember ever getting my BP scanned at the CDG lounge, just a visual check.

Arriving CDG on BA into T2 & Departing CDG T1 on QR Business (upgraded from Y using Q Credits) - lounge best options? CX T2 (accessing using my departing QR BP) or possible to get access to the QR lounge at T1 (given upgraded ticket?) Thanks.
