Air France’s New Airport Lounge at CDG Is Just for VVIPs—Here’s How to Get In
The airline’s retreat offers a completely private experience more akin to a luxury hotel than a lounge, with outdoor patios and shuttle service in a Porsche.

To get into Air France’s newest lounge at Charles de Gaulle Airport, you’ll have to pay up, and not just for the price of a La Premiere first-class ticket. To reward its highest-spending passengers, the French carrier has introduced its most exclusive offering yet: Three private suites within the expanded 10,700-square-foot flagship La Premiere lounge, each meant to feel more like a chic Parisian hotel room than an airport lounge space.
The suites span nearly 500 square feet—comparable to a deluxe room at celebrated five-star hotel Le Bristol—and feature butler service, double beds with crisp linens, a generous living room area gussied up with fresh flowers and fruit, and even outdoor patios. When it’s time to catch their flight, guests will get shuttled directly to the aircraft door in a Porsche Cayenne or Mercedes van.
