The facility will be the largest lounge in Air France’s international network and is intended to provide customers with an enhanced travel experience.

The new lounge will showcase French travel culture and will be available to La Première and Business customers (excluding Business Light fares), Flying Blue Elite Plus members, and eligible passengers travelling with KLM and SkyTeam partner airlines, Air France said.

Inside Air France’s New JFK Lounge

Air France teams have developed the lounge in collaboration with design agency MARKS Brandimage. Spread across two levels, it will accommodate more than 400 guests, with dining areas centred on French gastronomy and a bar offering a selection of French wines and champagnes.

Travellers will also have dedicated spaces for beauty treatments, relaxation, and work, while Flying Blue Ultimate members will have access to an area reserved exclusively for them.

For La Première customers, the lounge will offer a seamless and personalised airport journey from arrival at New Terminal One at JFK through to boarding their flight. They will have access to a private area within the lounge with a dining service created especially for them by a renowned French chef.

The experience will extend beyond the lounge to New Terminal One itself, which will feature advanced technology, retail and dining facilities, and modern amenities.
