PMI
Is the Palma entry up to date? I'm not being offered anything in MMB for a PMI return…

They look up to date to me. Assuming you are still on the summer frequency (there is a non Schengen terminal in use until the nearly the end of October) then Valldemossa is the more conveniently placed, Formentor is the larger of the two, more or less equal in food and drink provision (and run by the same company). Perfectly acceptable, but not worth a long stay.

I seem to recall that at BOD recently we were told that the lounge was closed at that time of night (the evening flight) which suggests it may be open/available during the day.
Any update on MUC (see Aug 17, above)? Going there in a couple of weeks and had been planning to hang out in the lounge and work on the way home while munching pretzels.

I have a data point which may or may not be relevant. I gained access to this lounge today when flying on a BA booking, Air Nostrum metal in economy.

The Orly Iberia lounge has now closed, replaced by an airside (in the gate 10 area) third party lounge (so not accessible or helpful to BA flyers). Shame as after arriving early for a couple BA/EC flights with bags to check (which they wouldn't accept) I went to the Iberia lounge to wait...

I was in LIS last week. Check-in lady was firm that we should go to the ANA lounge. She chuckled when I mentioned the 'Blue Room/Lounge'.
The ANA lounge was a zoo. Horrendous bed blocking with briefcases, coats etc. There was a woman walking around with her small dog following her, not on a lead. (I saw her carrying it near security).
Not at all a pleasant place to sit and be refreshed.

Small update for BIO - much larger range of spirits available including vodka, whisky and brandy, and sparkling wine also in the fridge with 3 other whites, cheese and very large selection of sandwiches, range of newspapers in multiple languages,

So there are two lounges at PMI? Anyone know which is the better? Looking to use tomorrow early evening. Could be busy as there's two flights back to London.
