Once again not surprised with the cost cutting policies...
While I doubt many people are giving any credence to BA's claim that they are keeping outstation lounges closed for safety reasons, there is at least a kernel of truth to the above

BA should be operating from BER from early November, so seems they have decided they can get away without a lounge at TXL until then. I have no idea what, if any, the lounge offering at BER will be at that time. The linked post has some suggestions on that front.
