Yes, that’s the LX fail, only 2 dayrooms

LH plan is not to make them so comfortable, they are fine if you need to get some sleep but not inviting enough for anything else.

Exactly, a total of 2 at ZRH is just not enough.

LH could make the beds a bit more comfortable and would still not run the risk that people would want to spend to much time in the small windowless box they are

The key factor (sorry about the pun) is that you do not get a key for the LH rooms; can be locked from inside but once you are out that’s it.

LX dayrooms are absolutely fabulous, all two of them

FRA & MUC dayrooms are for pax desperate for some sleep & that’s doing it’s job.

Pax check in to ZRH dayrooms , if you can get one, & don’t want to leave

Incredibly selfish people 🤬
Wow.
And for that they occupied TWO of the rooms?! I've seen people being lynched for lesser reasons...

Back then, it was probably the first time this happened. And there was most likely no procedure in place to help the LD argue that this is unacceptable. My hope would be that chris63 complained and lounge management have since developed instructions for LDs for such a situation.

They are. Watching a live runway from your own bed between naps, it doesn’t get much better.

Well, they could put in a cooler with a bottle of LPGS, but then people really wouldn’t leave

Yes !

And the rules permitted that, Father & Son on same inbound flight & same outbound....

We all know here how strict the LD’s are at ZRH & they seem to relish at times applying the rules

Like Don Henley said - you can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave.

You would star in the luxury version of the movie „The Terminal“ then.

I disagree. I find having to choose between the various gummy bears to be a more vexing issue.
