SAS Lounge Options Paris (CDG)
I have a question for you CDG regulars as I am not very familiar with the airport (and especially not T2). I have a few upcoming non *A flights with long lay overs at CDG and I would really like to use the SK lounge (EBP will grant access). Problem is my transfers are 2F -> 2C and reverse. Is there any chance to reach the SAS lounge airside from T2?

IIRC it is possible to make the airside connection but to be honest the SK lounge in CDG is (was?) less than inspiring in terms of either food/beverage selection, comfort or even being a place that you want to be with a long layover - I have spent happier times in a dentist waiting room. Not sure that this helps but just my feedback

I would not go to T1 from T2 just for the SK lounge. Remember that terminals are far apart in CDG, you need to take a train shuttle landside, and airside, no idea what is available... but they might also check boarding passes etc. Landside, around 2B-2D I think there is a hippopotamus steak restaurant. Not the best of the world, but the prices are normal city prices and not airport exagerated prices. If you have a long connection from 2C, is it to go to DXB on Emirates? there is free wifi signal in 2C around emirates lounge and AF arrival lounge. EK lounge is said to be excellent in CDG if you travel C with them.

SAS uses terminal 1 and you'll be using terminal 2, they are a long distance apart.
I don't know if you can get from one terminal to the other and stay airside the whole time, otherwise you will need to go landside and there is a risk they won't let you airside at T1.
Also, the SAS lounge at CDG is nothing special. Very little to eat, limited selection of drinks, small and rather noisy since it's in the satellite.
Easily one of the worst SAS lounges on the network.

Yes! The *A lounge is in the non-Schengen zone (in the main terminal building), the SAS lounge is in the Schengen zone (in one of the satellites).

I don't know what it's like now since SAS has moved to another satellite due to renovations...

There is a SAS lounge which is after security in Terminal 1, which accomodates also (hopefully) AirBaltic business class passengers like me pretty soon. I read there were no toilets in the lounge, but I wonder if it means the lounge has no toilets at all, as other passengers have to go all the way back through security if they want to use the toilet.

In september (some time ago ...) SK was operating from satellite 6 (I'm ALMOST sure), and the lounge (former UA?) was in the basement of S6. Still before security, and the toilets were in the basement very close to the lounge. It is (or was at least at that time) a small improvement over the former lounge upstairs in S7, but still nothing special.
And no. I have never seen any airside transfer between T1, T2 and T4.

Actually, I think the SAS lounge is (or at least was in August...) in the basement of Sat 5 , while the LH lounge is in Sat 6.
