Here are a few pics from inside the IGA lounge from yesterday between 23:30 and 01:00 when the TK lounges are crazy full.

TK lounge still serves Demel cakes. Food is better at the TK lounges but you won't get any coca cola or pepsi products.

Thank you, there is hope for slightly less than mayhem then

. I won't be fighting for the savory foods if there are queues or so though a slice of pide will likely fit in the belly if available. I rather have some cake I think as later, on the way to SIN, dinner will be served anyways.

I also got Priority Pass, so I'll keep that IGA lounge as a backup mind. Safe travels.
