THE WEBSITE INDICATES A CLOSING TIME OF MIDNIGHT WHICH IS WRONG.
THIS WIKI REMAINS CORRECT.

while this is good news, I am wondering if this is the best way to spend AC's resources, and provide maximum passenger comfort and amenities. There is a MLL literally few meters away. Wouldn't it have been better to upgrade the current MLL (e.g. provide more quality food similar to what's offered in the international lounge, refurbish the upholstery, chairs, etc., and add another elevator)?

You had meat carving, omelette station, the works.
That is now all gone, except the bartender

So no E35k? Does that mean no lounge cert access either?

This also reminds me of LH’s new lounge concept in MUC. Sounds similar in spirit!

I'm likely to use the main MLL for any flight after 11am, but it's nice to know I can grab a quick snack or non-alcoholic beverage on a quick EYW connection
Actually, TB has a huge new area that could house a massive lounge, right below the existing one...

There will always be naysayers, but you can't fault AC for trying, even if the execution might sometimes be subpar.
Many of us here do have gripes about certain areas of AC, but it's always nice to see these things. After all, they didn't have to do this. So I'm giving them a preliminary ^.

The mental image of some us dancing at airports is enough to drive me to drink.
Okay, drink more.

I wonder if P25K and E35K members travelling with an eUpgrade J class ticket will be able to get in?
It seems to be a case of YMMV most of the time...
