Here you enjoy a glass of wine, go thru your “private security” up the elevator and have a new glass of wine a minute later. Pretty soon, it will be a left turn for a better choice of wine as you enter into D1. If you’re going thru TBIT anyway, then use the new AF lounge.. You’ll have better wine and food selection right from the get go and no need to hike it back and forth.
I didn't realize that it was its own lounge, thanks. I've only seen the door in front of the traffic which makes a racket with horns, engines, brakes and general confusion. Next time I am there I will walk by and take a look, time permitting.

Nothing against the D1 lounge which I think is a fantastic idea if there is a nice wine list and table service. My comments were only about the entrance.
