On 28 June 2024, Air France reopened its fully renovated lounge at Cayenne-Félix Eboué International Airport (CAY) situated in French Guiana. The newly updated lounge provides customers with a great place to relax and enjoy a snack before boarding. The lounge is slightly small but does have 41 seats spanning an area of more than 1,076 square feet (100 m²).

Food

The lounge features French cuisine, served from a self-service menu that offers a variety of hot and cold, savoury and sweet dishes, as well as vegetarian options. Meat and seafood salad, fish, and turmeric chicken are just some of the dishes inviting you to enjoy gourmet delights with a focus on local produce.

Amenities

The lounge incorporates Air France's signature colours, featuring shades of blue, luminous whites, touches of red, and the presence of the winged seahorse, the airline's historic symbol. The lounge is divided into three distinct areas, each featuring comfortable chairs, separated for greater privacy and calm. Facing the window, a high table allows passengers to work in natural daylight. Flying Blue Ultimate customers have an area entirely reserved for them. The lounge also offers a complimentary Wi-Fi connection and numerous electrical and USB sockets conveniently located near the seats. Digital press is available on the Air France Play app.

Nearly 70% of the seats have been renovated and reupholstered locally in a more sustainable approach. Air France pays particular attention to minimizing food waste, promoting selective sorting, and recycling its catering services. Water fountains are also available to limit the consumption of single-use plastic.

Access

This lounge is dedicated to Air France's Business and Flying Blue Ultimate, Platinum, and Gold customers. Eligible customers from KLM and SkyTeam alliance partner airlines are also eligible.
