Air France is set to transfer all its flights to New York's JFK New Terminal One next year, unveiling a new 29,000-square-foot lounge, the largest in its international network. This move aims to enhance the travel experience for La Première and Business customers, Flying Blue Elite Plus members, and eligible travellers with KLM and SkyTeam partners.

The lounge, designed by Air France in collaboration with MARKS Brandimage, will span two levels and accommodate over 400 guests. It will feature dining areas celebrating French gastronomy, a bar with exclusive French wines and champagnes, and dedicated spaces for beauty treatments, relaxation, and work. An exclusive area will be reserved for Flying Blue Ultimate members.

Nicolas Henin, Senior Vice President North America at Air France-KLM, highlighted the significance of New York as a market, stating, "We are taking our premium travel experience to a new level, continuing to invest not only in the flight itself but providing elegance in every moment of the journey."

Jennifer Aument, CEO of New Terminal One, expressed pride in Air France's choice, noting, "Air France's investment in our terminal's biggest lounge represents a strong vote of confidence in the seamless and modern travel experience we are building."

Currently, Air France operates up to 11 daily flights between Paris-Charles de Gaulle and New York, with six flights to JFK, including four Boeing 777-300ER flights featuring the new La Première cabin. The New Terminal One is part of a $19 billion transformation of JFK, aiming to set a new standard for international terminals.
