I guess I’ll take my chances and show my business class ticket from Chicago to tell her and see what happens.
If I have to pay the $96, Is the food and drinks included in this and are the selection pretty good? when I was looking at some videos I saw some sushi and some gourmet meals
Best of course if you get comp access. If you have to pay everything is included. Upstairs dining room -There is an extensive hot buffet, breads to choose and they'll serve you, salads to order, a full mezze type buffet and a menu. Then there is the dessert area to die for (like 20 different amazing cakes, etc that will be served to you). There is also a more casual place to eat (different lighter menu) at the other end on the main floor. Alcohol choices are extensive and good quality. If you look at the website there is a link to the menu so you can see it yourself (or the link may be in another post in the thread).
My regrets being there was that the food on my flight was so good that I couldn't eat more in the lounge

Oh and they scan your boarding pass at the bottom of the escalator leading to the lounge so it's probably encoded and if QR said yes you're likely good to go. Also there is a small selection of sushi - but not raw fish -decent but not my first choice.
