- If you want to know if the lounge is in the non-Schengen, area, then mmff is right: you cannot;
- If you want to know if, holding a ticket to a non-Schengen destination, you can access the lounge while you are in the Schengen area, you can indeed.

Thank tff fpr a more accurate reply. As suggested by the OMAAT blog, it appears you must enter the lounge after you have cleared security (i.e. into the Schengen area) but before you go through passport control. Of course, this introduces another variable for timing your walk to the gate, though I gather passport control lines are manageable. However, we almost missed a flight at ZRH for this reason.

From the huge crowds I've been experiencing lately in the lounge, I wouldn't say they have a very strict policy plus I see a lot of couples with children there and suppose a lot of them are in your situation. You should be good!

Thank you for the feedback! We will be flying LIS-YUL with Air Canada Rouge. If I understand the set-up of this airport correctly, after check-in and security, you end up in the Schengen area of the terminal. That's were the lounge is, right? And then, some time before boarding starts, we will have to go through passport control and make our way to the international gates. Did I get all this right?

Hi all,
Have flights, DUB LIS BOS in J.
I've been able to check in online for DUB LIS, but LIS BOS unable due to US requirements. Does anyone know if I'll be able to do this airside in LIS? At the lounge perhaps? Hoping to not have to clear customs (non EU passport) and check back in landside....
Cheers!
