Which makes me think something is a miss at CTA..
Star Alliance uses SAC (including LX and TK, or at least the Star Gold logo is out there) along with Priority Pass, Lounge Angel and similar cards. Bellini is used by various airlines including AB and AZ, plus Vueling is shortly to get access there.. As with many Italian airports, it's not worth getting there early. On the other hand, and also in line with many Italian airports, it is in easy reach of the town centre (in fact walking distance if it's not too hot).
