Realistically, with the demises of MA and AB, only AY and IB are left to operate and use Oneworld lounges in any Schengen departure zone of any airport in the Schengen agreement area. And Finnair does not operate any lounges outside of Helsinki.
So basically, outside Helsinki and Spain, don't expect any
proper Oneworld lounge. Finnair will contract non-Oneworld lounges - or not.
