Paris-CDG will rename terminals: Air France's 2E, 2F and 2G become T5, T6 and T7

Paris-Charles de Gaulle is changing its terminal names on March 16, 2027. For Air France passengers, Terminal 2E becomes Terminal 5, Terminal 2F becomes Terminal 6, and Terminal 2G becomes Terminal 7.

This is a naming change that travelers should know before following an older airport guide. Air France's official guidance says the locations of its services and the route through the airport remain unchanged.

The terminal names to save#

The change covers more than the Air France terminals:

Current name	Name from March 16, 2027
Terminal 1	Terminal 1
Terminal 3	Terminal 2
Terminals 2A and 2C	Terminal 3
Terminals 2B and 2D	Terminal 4
Terminal 2E	Terminal 5
Terminal 2F	Terminal 6
Terminal 2G	Terminal 7

Use the travel date when reading this table. Until the change takes effect, the existing names remain the useful reference for airport directions.

Gate letters change too#

Air France lists these boarding-gate changes: K becomes D, L becomes C, M becomes B, F becomes E, and G becomes N.

That means an older guide to Terminal 2E Hall L will use different labels from the updated airport signs. The physical place is not moving simply because the name changes.

Air France says check-in documents will be updated automatically. Passengers whose earlier travel documents use the old names do not need to take action solely because of the renaming.

Why lounge travelers should pay attention#

A lounge search often starts with a terminal and hall. When both labels change, a familiar lounge can look as if it has disappeared or moved.

Our advice is to match the lounge's location to the new airport labels before setting out. Use the airline's current directions for the travel date and cross-check older screenshots against the table.

At Paris-CDG, finding the right departure area matters more than memorizing the whole naming system. Save the details for the terminal, gate area and lounge you expect to use.

What to do before your trip#

When checking in, read the fresh boarding pass and any airport message rather than relying only on the confirmation sent months earlier. If you are meeting someone, share the terminal name shown for the actual travel date.

Travelers arranging a driver should include the airline and flight number as well as the terminal label. Those extra details give the driver a clearer way to check the destination if an old and new name appear in different systems.

For a connection, follow the transfer directions for your next flight. Do not infer a new transfer requirement just because the ticket shows a different terminal number.

Keep older guides in context#

Airport blogs, lounge reviews and saved maps may continue to use 2E, 2F and 2G long after March 2027. Their descriptions can still be useful if you translate the location labels correctly.

A review's date is therefore part of its practical value. Look for a current map or official directions before relying on a walking route or meeting point from an older article.

The same applies to photos. A sign in an old lounge review records how the space was labeled when the photo was taken; it may not match the name used on your next boarding pass.

The practical takeaway for your itinerary#

I'd keep the renaming date beside your travel plans, especially if you leave before March 16 and return after it. The same airport building may carry a different label on the return trip.

For Air France's main terminals, remember the three replacements: 2E to 5, 2F to 6, and 2G to 7. Then let the updated boarding pass and airport signs guide the rest of the journey.
