I was looking forward to one of my favorite pre-flight rituals at Paris Charles de Gaulle: a sauna in the Air France Lounge in Terminal 2E, Hall L. Instead, I discovered that the sauna is gone for good, apparently because some passengers could not behave themselves.
It was a great setup: a private changing room, an enormous walk-in shower, and a wood-paneled sauna large enough for several people, though the entire suite was reserved for one party at a time.
On my latest visit, I headed toward the shower area expecting to sweat for 20 minutes before my flight.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
