Why are there so many complains about the SEN lounges? It is at least the LH F lounge and it is open to all *Gold members. All those RCCs and USAir clubs are even worser than the LH Business lounges.

If you look at the airlines offering First Class there are not that many allowing you to use their "real" F lounges:

UA. Poor F room but no *Gold allowed
SQ: Very good F lounge but no *Gold not even F class allowed
TG: see SQ
NH: Never been to their F lounge but no access for *Gold or F class of other *airlines
OZ: I donīt know if you can enter their F lounge in ICN as a *Gold.
LX: No real *Gold lounges - shared lounge with C passengers. F lounge for F passengers only (not even SENs)

Please correct me if I am wrong

SQ is really the most arrogant airline in *Alliance. They only offer the minimum for elite or premium passengers of their "partner" airlines. If you donīt hold a SQ premium ticket they treat you like every other passenger. Award availability is close to 0 (esp. in premium classes).
