Lounge in FRA? what's it like
Hi All,
Have a trip to FRA in two weeks.... I dont think AC has a lounge there.. and instead uses the SEN LOUNGE.. Based on the board from FRA, the SEN lounges are a dissappointment..
Can anyone been there comment? Are there alternative nicer lounges?
Thanks in advance

well I'm assuming ur Star gold, so yes you can use the SEN lounges, I think they're better than the FRA business class lounges, which i personally thought were fine, however they are crowded and big. Theres also a RCC towards the US departures gates, but thats not really near the AC gates there.

The German thing: they do their best to make sure smoke flows from the smoking section, invading the entire nonsmoking area.
Showers are nice, but sometimes the line can get long. They page you when your time comes.
Limited food. Limited alcoholic selection. Good selection of newspapers. People generally pleasant and efficient.
Nowadays they have moved the watchdog outside the lounge, right at the door. Leaves the folks at the front desk with more time to deal with ticket issues. But they can't handle AC stuff: incompatible computers.

That's a long walk for not any more comfort or quiet IMO. The Senator lounges are ok but internet usage is expensive and RCC has no connections.

FRA SEN lounges are now non-smoking
Thanks all for your feedback.
I just checked the LH board, and based on current development, all FRA SEN lounges are smoke free.
