Night Service: Pre-Flight Dining for Restful Overnight Flights

Central to the lounge’s amenities, the exclusive Night Service caters to Business Class passengers traveling on Air France’s daily 21:10 AF027 departure from Washington to Paris-Charles de Gaulle.

Night Service is thoughtfully designed for travelers seeking maximum rest on transatlantic flights. Guests can savor a full-course French gastronomic dinner in the lounge—identical to the onboard menu—including appetizers, a main course, cheese, dessert, and a curated wine and Champagne selection, all served à la carte.

Once onboard, passengers can recline in the privacy of Air France’s acclaimed Business Class cabin, featuring fully flat beds for uninterrupted sleep. As the aircraft approaches France, a gourmet breakfast is served to gently welcome guests to Paris-Charles de Gaulle.

Signature Bar: Premium Wines, Champagnes & Craft Beverages

Anchored by a striking lacquered metal design, the lounge’s signature bar is a focal point, fully open to the main seating area and staffed by a professional bartender. Guests enjoy a rotating selection of fine French wines, premium Champagnes, and top-shelf spirits. For the first time in an Air France lounge, travelers can also sample cold draught beers, bringing a contemporary twist to the beverage program.

Refined Culinary Offerings: French Brasserie Meets Self-Service

Demonstrating an unwavering commitment to superior service, Air France has transformed its dining zone to spotlight the artistry of French cuisine.

Inspired by the ambiance of a Parisian brasserie, the space features bespoke circular banquettes and elegant furnishings to foster both sociability and privacy. The expansive self-service buffet tempts guests with an array of sweet and savory cold dishes, thoughtfully sourced and beautifully presented.

Relaxation & Wellness: Serene Second-Level Retreat

The upper level of the lounge offers a tranquil haven for relaxation. Sunlight-mimicking panels and sky-inspired hues create a soothing, light-filled refuge, perfect for unwinding before your flight. Guests can choose from ergonomic chaises longues or plush chairs, while a dedicated snack area ensures refreshments are always within reach, enhancing every moment of comfort and well-being.
