No lounges - AB has lounges
Even if AB has a pretty big network, is a low cost airline. They usually have tickets for 29€ (where 28€ are taxes). And their "meal" in cabin, is sometimes not more than a muffin. One significant drawback with Airberlin is that the one-time-record is really bad. Being delayed for over two hours are not too unusual.
