Thanks very much to both posters for this information. I now recall the use of the Piedemont Lounge.
But hang on -- on the TRN lounge page on your link, when I insert Gold Card holder and Economy in the form underneath the lounge description, it says Nous vous accueillons dans les 530 salons Air France et SkyTeam lorsque vous voyagez sur un vol international AIR FRANCE, KLM ou SkyTeam. (my bolding) Now, either this is a recent change or it is wrong (or I have been dreaming). Surely Gold card holders are admitted into lounges, with guests even, when on a domestic flight in economy? Also, thanks Goldarak for the helpful information regarding ORY. I wasn't aware that MPL was la Navette and thus Hall 2. I see a fair number of aircraft with those beautiful orange letters HOP on them at MPL. But then, my latest flight MPLCDG was operated by HOP, so who knows ... |

And now you have also a lounge in MPL. |

Can anyone give me an update on the lounge at MAN T3? Is it still the delightful 1903? I need something to cheer me up before getting the early FlyBe to CDG!
Edit: And the answer is....Yes, at least on Feb 26th. Nice scrambled eggs! |

The lounge is still available to skyteam pax. Looks like the agreement is ongoing which is fantastic news. What a joy this lounge is. The dragon has just rushed off to the kitchen to make me a bespoke ham salad sandwich.

Absolutely. This might be a small lounge but it beats hands down every other contract lounge I've been to and even many airline run ones.

Beirut Rafic Hariri (BEY) - MEA Cedar lounge
Name of the lounge : Beirut – MEA Cedar Lounge
https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4785/...8559ae37_z.jpg A very nice lounge, with a decent offering. Plenty of daylight with nice views on the apron and hills south of Beirut. The only downside of this lounge is the not-so-pleasant staff (not smiling at all, a bit rude, seem bored) and the noise level when the lounge is filling up. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4772/...0ddbfe8d_z.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4781/...68341270_z.jpg https://farm1.staticflickr.com/804/4...295a0a27_z.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4788/...94f6448e_z.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4786/...bbcc99dc_z.jpg https://farm1.staticflickr.com/819/3...92f40753_z.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4776/...a2ebc448_z.jpg https://farm1.staticflickr.com/794/3...e7e67c3e_z.jpg Location : upstairs just after immigration. This lounge is before the second security check point. Opening Hours : unknown Entry requirements : usual Skyteam requirements Food offer. Good selection of cold items (salads, sandwiches, cheese, cold cuts, oriental pastries, fruits) and a few (limited) warm options like pasta Drinks offer : soft drinks, fruit juices, water, cofee, tea and a nice selection of liquors, wine and…Champagne (this is so rare in a non-AF lounge outside France that it worths to be mentioned. And it’s a decent brand that is served : Piper Heidsieck). There are several attended bars for alcoholic drinks. https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4788/...279e8e8f_z.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4778/...ac1d5d34_z.jpg https://farm1.staticflickr.com/801/4...64d649ff_z.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4772/...ff575815_z.jpg https://farm1.staticflickr.com/818/2...27744ecc_z.jpg https://farm1.staticflickr.com/820/3...9b6caabd_z.jpg Services Wifi: yes and very rapid Showers: yes Toilets: yes Quiet zone: no Loungers/sleep area: no Business area: no Spa: no TV area: no Passengers are called: no Information screen: yes Newspapers: yes Other information Number of seats: about 300 seats Level of noise: as said above, due to the design of the lounge, it gets unfortunately very noisy when filling up (resonance) Design: see pictures View: yes Multi floors: no Terrace: no Smoking area: yes (see below) Direct boarding: no There is also a children room with games (see the last picture below) https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4795/...ccc49915_z.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4773/...3ed2de70_z.jpg https://farm5.staticflickr.com/4780/...5e92a8c1_z.jpg https://farm1.staticflickr.com/811/2...b983a223_z.jpg |

The airline lounge via hall A at BOD has more to offer than the AF lounge but instead of comfort i miss some class here.

I looked at NCE website and it seems they have renamed their lounges. In T2 the Cap Ferrat lounge (Schengen) became Infinity lounge and the Cap d'Antibes lounge (non-Schengen) became Levity lounge. I have updated the wiki.

ZRH/Dnata Aspire lounge is pretty good imo: catering, personnel, and location. In some aspects better than KL/25 as KL doesn't have the cheese cooled.
One cheese-country tops the other:D |
