Air France Lounge

3.5 / 5.0 - If you're flying JAL Premium Economy and above or have AA Platinum status (equivalent to One World Sapphire) and higher, you can access the Air France lounge at JFK.
This time, I was lead to the 2nd floor, which was a small space with limited seating. The food was good, although I didn't love the bread or dessert options. The mini smoothies were really nice and refreshing.
Not my favorite lounge, but nice to be able to stop by before a long flight.

Not sure Google got it correct as the Air France lounge seems to be separate from KLM. This is from Air France. Upstairs is very nice with great views over JFK. We ate before our flight and the food and service was very good. Drinks were top notch and most of food was very good. My wife’s risotto was excellent but my shrimp was way over cooked and very dry (otherwise I works have given five stars). Overall one of the better airport lounges.

The staff at the desk is unfortunately overwhelmed by a plethora of passengers making excuses to get into the lounge -not to mention upstairs. The downstairs area gets extremely crowded and busy as one too many of the aforementioned manage to get through using everything from a library card to “…I once flew premium economy in the early nineties”. I digress, if you’re on one of the Air France late flights it makes sense to dine on the ground and fly fast asleep; using the flatbed as intended. The meal service is a bit slow but oh how they fill those glasses to keep passengers happy (just remember to get down to your flight as they seem to announce boarding late). The lounge has lost the vibe it once had; clad with pictures of personalities on the tarmac, Air France in the background. Still a solid four star experience.
