New lounge designed by Jouin Manku in terminal 2F at Paris-Charles de Gaulle for Air France




On 19 August 2021, Air France unveiled its brand new iconic lounge located in terminal 2F at Paris-Charles de Gaulle. An invitation to celebrate the best of French-style travel, upon arrival at the airport or during transit.

Dedicated to Business customers and Flying Blue Elite Plus members travelling on Air France's short- and medium-haul Schengen network, this lounge is one of the airline's largest, with a surface area of 3,000 sq. m. and 570 seats spread over two levels.

In collaboration with teams from Air France and the Group ADP, the entire space and most of the furniture were designed by the Jouin Manku agency, founded by Canadian architect Sanjit Manku and French designer Patrick Jouin. The idea of levitation and grace guided the creative duo, to offer the airline's customers a real moment suspended in time and enjoy total relaxation before they board.

Following Charlotte Perriand, Andrée Putman and more recently Noé Duchaufour-Lawrance and Mathieu Lehanneur, Air France's choice to associate itself with this prestigious designer once again illustrates its tradition of working with the best architects and designers of its time, to continue telling its legendary story.

A haven of peace and serenity at the heart of the airport, the lounge, with its curved features and relaxing vibe, is open, airy and uncomplicated at first glance. There is something for everyone, depending on the amount of time customers have before boarding, to rest, freshen up, work or enjoy something to eat and drink.

ADP Group company Hub One, gets 10 year licence to operate 4 &5G mobile network covering Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Paris-Orly and Paris-Le Bourget airports.

Arcep, France’s electronic communications, postal and print media distribution regulatory authority, has granted a 10-year 4G/5G license to ADP Group company Hub One, in order to launch a high-speed private mobile network covering Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Paris-Orly and Paris-Le Bourget airports.

Air France, which is also involved in developing this future 4G/5G network, will thus become the first airline to use this innovative solution. 


This unprecedented partnership between Air France, Hub One and the ADP Group alongside an operational network scheduled to enter into force in 2020 will ensure optimal use of the bandwidth granted by Arcep, taking into account each operator’s specific requirements.
