if you are traveling in business or first then your boarding pass will be enough to use the lounge during transit....

both lounges are nothing to write home about....i prefer the carnations lounge but its like a zoo at most times....

if you don't get upgraded then just ask at the check-in counter....if a seat opens up then you will get it....i have rarely seen first class go full so there is a good chance you will get it....
