I am not focused on the Spa, I just want to know once we arrive from our First class flight from MUC-BKK, is it likely they will allow us to use the lounge on arrival? Appears to be so (or YMMV) according to many posts.....do I have this correct?


Also, 1 first class pass can bring 1 daughter, the other First class pass can bring in the other daughter....correct?
If you can get to the lounge, First class are permitted one guest each. But - lounge access back in the international (sterile) departures area is not guaranteed.

For such a long period, I'd recommend the Novotel at the airport (~$150), or if your budget is not that high, you can book one of the many hotels within a 5 minute drive from the airport for around $40. Those smaller hotels will pick you up from arrivals, and drop you off again.

our or five hours in the lounge is about the limit... after that you'll be climbing the walls. The hotels are simple and easy.
