The one at SKG looks fantastic and I'm looking forward to visiting this one too.
Its a huge upgrade to what we have been used to and a credit to Aegean management to invest in premium facilities and the future. Every time I see the new livery and brand it impresses me.

Is it for EU departing flights ? It looks great. I used to go to the Lufthansa lounge but that might not be the case anymore !

I think you need a non Schengen boarding pass to get to that part of the airport 😌

That looks really fabulous. Shame I have no extra-Schengen segments through ATH in the near future. At least I'll be in the new SKG lounge again in the coming weeks hopefully.

The pictures are excellent. I look forward to "stopping by" on the 9th on my way to LCA (from LIS) and again on the 17th on my way back to LIS from LCA.

Not sure you will be able to visit when flying LCA-LIS, it's non Schengen lounge.

There is zero signage as to what food items are on offer. The only sign up is the one telling you to ask staff if you have allergens. I tried that and was told that ham dishes were Turkey and then ham and then Turkey again. English was not that staff member’s strength.

Fix this glaring issue and this place will be awesome.
