Air France has opened its redesigned premium lounge in Terminal 1 at Munich's international airport.
The lounge is available to Air France, KLM and Skyteam partner airlines’ Business and Flying Blue Elite Plus customers. It is open daily from 5.15 am to 8.30 pm. Customers travelling in the Economy and Premium Economy cabins can also purchase lounge access for 25 euros or 6,000 miles - subject to space availability. There is room for 75 passengers in this 227 square-metre lounge.
France's national carrier is upgrading many of its lounges around the world - bringing its distinctive look - shades of blue, grey and touches of red - as well as the accent, the company's brand symbol, and the famous winged seahorse. The furniture includes the iconic Egg armchair and creations by French designers including Pierre Paulin, Patrick Jouin and brothers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec.
The lounge has a large dining area that promotes French cuisine in a “Parisian brasserie” surround. The dining offer changes throughout the day and is based on savoury or sweet dishes, inviting guests to discover seasonal flavours. Healthy and vegetarian meals including soup and gourmet salads are also available. A range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are available, including wines as well as local beers. Water fountains are provided to limit the consumption of single-use plastic.
The lounge offers free Wi-Fi and plenty of electric and USB sockets near the seats.
Air France offers 6 daily flights between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and Munich airport. KLM also connects its Amsterdam-Schiphol hub to the Bavarian capital with 5 daily flights.
