During a business class flight from Toronto to Paris on the Air France A350, I had the opportunity to test the Air France-KLM lounge in Toronto (YYZ).
This lounge is open to passengers of certain airlines that belong to the SkyTeam alliance and who are travelling in business class (or who hold a status that grants lounge access).
It is also open to holders of certain credit cards (offering Priority Pass or LoungeKey) such as the American Express Platinum Card.
If you want to get 6 annual visits to Priority Pass lounges and restaurants, an excellent card is the Scotiabank Passport™ Visa Infinite + Card (which is also a credit card with no foreign currency conversion fees). You could also get 4 annual visits to Priority Pass lounges and restaurants with the CIBC Aventura® Visa Infinite* Card or the CIBC Aventura® Gold Visa* Card.
Finally, if you are a frequent traveller, your best option is to choose one of the American Express Platinum cards, the only ones that give you unlimited access for the cardholder and one guest to more than 1,300 airport lounges around the world.

The Air France-KLM Lounge is located in Terminal 3 of Toronto-Pearson International Airport (YYZ), just above Gate C33.
After an access control to the lounge, we arrive directly at the catering area on the right.
It is a buffet formula with cold starters and hot dishes.
On the drinks side, some juices and alcoholic drinks are offered.
The rest and work areas are spread around the lounge. It’s pretty easy to isolate yourself.
A few magazines are also freely available.
We also appreciate the bay windows offering a great luminosity through the lounge.
This lounge is a good option if you are travelling on an international flight from Toronto-Pearson Terminal 3.
