Dont have your expectation on Swiss lounge too high. The lounge is SMALL. Dont know outside CX flight time, what it has to offer.

To learn more you can hop to CX forum and search Swiss lounge because for some inexplicable reason CX uses Swiss lounge for its daily flight ORD-HKG instead of using BA lounge - probably because Swiss lounge is CHEAPER!

I am not even sure you could get in during the time CX would take over the lounge. When we were there last November (flying CX J ORD-HKG), a guy with Priority Club pass and a CX Marco Polo Diamond, but was in coach on the same flight, was denied access - the lounge dragon said it would be CX J/F passengers only during CX flight time. The guy was sent to SAS lounge instead - where the lounge was more spacious but very little foods (cracker and lunch-size apple), water only. Nobody was there but the attendant at the entrance.
