The new lounge is as nice as the old one with a little bit of new furniture. They introduced some café-like workplaces with power-outlets in front of the smoking area and changed the adjustment of the buffet-area. Thats it - IMHO not much of an improvement but a few more squaremeters.

Gummi airplanes in HAM SEN lounge?
One of my favorite things in LH lounges is the gummi airplane candy. They've had them everywhere I've tried (FRA, MUC, DUS, DXB, IAD). It's usually peanuts, some nut snacks mix plus the gummi airplanes, in those three bowls.
But not in the Hamburg lounges - neither SEN nor C. Instead there were nuts, wasabi nuts and something else. Is it just HAM, or are they now gone from everywhere?

)No, they will play with fire if they are trying to remove them, 4U ok, I can survive, but that would go to far

I did notice last Monday (4th) that the usual gummi-bears were missing over by the second coffee machine in the SEN lounge. If you're stuck, you can pickup a packet from P&B just under the lounge, or if you're passing the Hamburg Airport lounge (over the airside food area) they tend to have the Haribo Rado-mix available. Will report from my next visit...

Lounge Hamburg
I am wondering how many HON or (indirect) FCL travel start in Hamburg. This week I was twice traveling from HAM (by coincident while haven't been here for 2-3 years) and must say the LH lounges are dated, full both times, the food (cabbage soup) was not really attracting, etc. In both lounges business and Senator the same! I am not talking about the lounge dragons (they are in most lounges not very attentive to valuable customers). In general I somehow felt going back in ages and no separate FCL/HON section too (like in BRU which is great).

BTW, there are a lot of rich people in Hamburg and a lot of business. I see a lot red/silver envelopes waking into the lounges when I depart from HAM (have lived there 2 years, now I’m just visiting quite a lot)
but as already said, what should they have FCL? LH only operates FCLs where their F flights depart. And to be honest, HAM is so close to the city and such a small airport that I really go there with more than 30 minutes before boarding. So a place to get a coffee and a place to sit down for 30 mins is all I need.

As mentioned upthread, there used to be a separate security for F/C leading to the SEN/C lounge complex. Sadly HAM abandoned that concept, probably to capture the premium pax traffic to be guided thru their shopping complex post security. Otherwise the SEN lounge is fine: great views, OK food and the desk staff is helpful if asked (I had a weather dealy on my flight and the agent contacted the gate of the earlier flight to see if I could be accomodated).
