While I don’t visit WAW on a monthly basis, on my last LX flights to/from WAW, they used a gate at the opposite end of where the lounge is (gate 44 IIRC). In that case I’d skip the lounge as it involves a 10 min walk each way.

Brief question, as I have not been to T1 in CDG for a long time: Is possible to do a turnaround from / to ZRH on the same plane? Will be arriving into CDG from ZRH (as a positioning flight for ex-EU) and would like ideally board the very same aircraft to go back to ZRH. Do we have to go through security in T1 in CDG?
But that only applies when the arriving plane connects to a jetbridge. I have done this a before, no problem.
However, this was with an Airbus A320.
Now, LX also flies from ZRH to CDG with smaller planes, CS3 and CS1. Does anybody know if these planes also connect to a jetbridge, or if they possibly get an apron position with busing to the terminal - then it might be challenging to return on the same plane again?
Thanks!

Swiss flights to CDG: I flight that route >50 times a year since more than a decade. Never an apron position. Not when they were at CDG 2B, not when they were using Satellite 7, not now that they are using Satellite 6. You have to go through security again, but as stated previously by anothre poster, the time it will take you will not make you miss your plane. And if things get tight, passengers on flights that board have priority.
Thus, easy to do a turn-around in CDG. But of course almost any (all) other airport in the Schengen zone is easier, as you will deplane to the departure area. No need to go through security in AMS, Germany, Scandinavia, Barcelona, Lisbon, etc.

Here's a tricky one: What about direct turnaround in LHR? I'd arrive from ZRH in C, return there with the same flight in Y, no bags etc.
From what I remember, LHR requires that all transit passengers go through security again, right?

Yes, security check required. LHR wouldn't be my preferred quick turnaround airport.
