KD Lounge time before the flight
I was wondering if the lounge is open 24 hours a day (excluding Saturday obviously)?
Is it possible to access the lounge 5-6 hours before the flight?
I have an early flight TLV-WAW at around 5AM in J, was planning on going out with colleagues for a few drinks in TLV and arriving at the airport at around midnight or maybe 1AM instead of getting a hotel room for such a short time.
Are they serving food and alcoholic drinks during the night? I can also access the Dan lounge which is open 24 hours a day using PP but would obviously prefer the KD Lounge.
Also, would it be a problem to check-in so early? I'm not sure yet if I will be traveling with or without luggage.

No massages during these hours, though

OMG! The lounge at JFK just gets worse and worse. The food and drinks is good, but it gets overcrowded quickly and the bathrooms are terrible. Men's bathroom has just one urinal and one toilet. The toilet provides no privacy and the toilet paper is the cheapest available in NYC as are the paper towels. The doors and handles are all sticky and haven't been cleaned in years. I would sooner use my Priority Pass next time then go to the KD Lounge in JFK.

Hi everybody,
Do C passengers have access to any lounge in VCE? I'm planning to go there at the end of the month and I'm thinking about flying in C using cash+points. Not having lounge access would make it less worthwhile.

King David First class lounge at TLV.
We took the morning flight to LHR on a Friday, thus there were no other First class flights from El Al.
This meant we had the First class lounge all to ourselves, as we were the only passengers in First.
The lounge is located next to the King David business lounge - to the right of the reception.
The lounge is MUCH smaller than the beautiful biz-lounge, but that's understandable.
The food in the lounge was basically the same as in the biz-lounge, with some finer cheese offerings and perhaps more decent alcohol.
An attendant popped in every 15 minutes to make sure we were doing ok, but most of the time we were there all alone, so we basically spent the time relaxing on the sofas and eating Kosher food.
All in all, a lovely experience.
