No alchohol in the F lounge at all during daylight hours.
Disappointing but not entirely surprising. I will make up for it’s absence once onboard in the F cabin

Here at the FC Lounge now (9 pm Abu Dhabi time) and they are serving the full range of drinks. Service has been amazing so far.
BTW- transit security was a major hell hole. 4 lines (and possibly more backed up all the way to the stairs) I asked if there was a premium line and was told first by AUH security that there was none. So I decided to ask an Etihad staff if there was one and he just said "Sorry not at this time..."

Was in the F Lounge couple days ago, no alcohol, absolutely no chance at all from I think 4am to 7/8pm

Yes you order alcohol in lounges and on board. In the lounge the bar will appear closed but staff will serve you. There are NO restrictions in flight or any routes (except, perhaps Saudi Arabian flights).
Definitely no booze in the EY F lounge during day time. EY, you need to decide if you want to be a global carrier or not - EK serves booze 24h during Ramadan in lounges.

Yep no booze at all right now in the F lounge. Iftar onwards only. I tend to agree about the comparison with EK ^

Can anyone provide a more recent update on this? Will there be alcohol on EY flights once in the air during Ramadan? or in the lounge once the sun sets? I have a 15-hour flight AUH to ORD during Ramadan so am curious.
