If you travel intra-Schengen (to most western European countries) there is absolutely nothing to do after check-in, no shops, no restaurants...
This is also the only airport terminal I know of where the arrivals hall is located above the departure hall, this has made quite a few people confused.
But as I mentioned in my previous post, the terminal is starting to look rather nice which is good. The new *A check-in area is really nice!
It is also nice that all *A carriers move to the same terminal which will make transfers easier (and of course check-in and ticket facilities).
I have seen the future plans for the terminal and it all looks very good, if they could only do something about the outside as well...

Once the redevelopment is complete at the end of 2008, all Star Alliance member carriers serving Paris CDG will operate from Terminal 1. Until then, Air Canada and Austrian will remain in Terminal 2A and 2D respectively.
