Yes exactly. And i think lounges always have the possibility to reject admissible members based on overcrowding if they give theoretical access, but unfortunately, this is not what is being decided here. The Club House is busy, but it is not busy all the time. The vast majority of traffic is in the morning, but in afternoons, things get a lot more quiet. Sadly, VS chose not to grant access when flying Skyteam, and sadly, Skyteam chose not to fight for the normal rules to apply when admitting VS. I think it is basically a case of DL wanting VS in and nobody else saying anything. Don't take me wrong, it is great that VS joined, but I think it should have been on standard rules, especially as their own members will access partner airlines' lounges using standard rules.
