Busiest LH / LX Lounges
I feal like everytime I read posts about LH or LX lounges, it's mostly complaining about how packed they are. As only a lowely FTL, I only know the Biz lounges, but I was wondering if there were some lounges that seem to be more often packed full than others. I fly mostly DUS, CGN, TXL, and the lounges never seem to be more than 50% full (rarely see over 10% full at CGN), so my experience seems rather different than the posts I've read here. Are these lounges non-core and typically less full? Or for some reason are SEN lounges more full than FTL in general? Maybe I've just been lucky...

Plenty of time to look over that window / balcony section over at SEN food and see the soups. Are SEN lounges generally smaller? Just thinking that may contribute to their feeling more ful compared to FTL.

Try both during peak periods Mon a.m. and Fri afternoon and you might have problems finding a place to sit down. Just my experience from semi-regular commuting trips NUE-DUS-NUE and MUC-CGN-MUC over the last couple of years.

From my experience, SEN lounges are usually about half the size of the BIZ lounges. And it depends mainly on the time of day if they are (over-)crowded or not. You can not find a place to sit in FRA SEN Lounge in A-Terminal on the mornings and in the evenings. During the day and very early or very late it is okay.
Another thing that absolutely annoys me: the small amount of toilets they provide in all lounges. It seems to be absolutely normal to always have to wait in line to get a free "seat" there.

MUC: Disagree- if you find that lounge not really impressive (which one MUC has 3 SEN Lounges and a SEN Cafe?) what kind of lounge do you expect? I find MUC one of the best lounges in the LH Network. Only some "real" F-Lounges can beat them (like the QF-F Lounges in MEL or the LH FCL).
It can be full at peak hours, but you have some lounges to roam around.
