I suppose you are in the Civil Aviation Business Class Lounge right now - you are right, this place is not as attractive as the EK lounge. However, I had the experience that the spot is less crowded. Sometimes itīs really hard to find a place to sit down in the "original" lounge.
In August, Iīll have the opportunity to try out the First Class Lounge. Is there a big difference between the C-Class and F-Class places ?
