United CDG Club
Hi all,
Are all United/Star Alliance clubs open at CDG? Arriving early for checkin on June 15 for CDG-SFO. Website says Star Alliance club “temp closed”- no answer at United phone.
Suggestions?

When I was there a few weeks ago, only the Air Canada club was open. Small club but not over packed. Was maybe 5-10 minute walk from the United gate for Newark.

There’s no United Club at CDG. Calling a reservation/phone agent at United about a lounge in Paris promises to be a waste of time.
This looks up to date and is easy to use:

Hoping the closed lounge note is as outdated as the mask rule. Paris hotel thinks its open.
Anybody been through CDG Star Alliance Lounge since France lifted the mask rule? If yes-is it still in T1 and will I have to repeat passport/security before boarding in T 2A?
Otherwise I am stuck on one of those metal benches for 2 hours. (Air Canada ok but they dont open til 7:30 am).
FTO seems the only source for authentic info!!!
Many thanks.

Thank you.
Check-in counters will be open three (3) hours prior to earliest UA departure from that airport, if there is a locng break between departure, they may close again.
Bags can not be checked more than four (4) prior to your specific departure
UA use to post hours online but seems to be gone

CDG T1 is closed. UA uses T2 and eligible passengers use the Air Canada lounge.
T1 may reopen around the end of this year.
Even back in January I didn't wear a mask in the AC lounge. I was sitting at the bar drinking.
