Roll call for Basel Lounge last weekend?
So how many of us were exactly flitting around/through Switzerland last weekend?
I only ask this because I was in the Basel lounge on Sunday and when keying 'flyertalk' on the internet I was offered several 'suggestions' for FT links created on Sunday.
So this is really just an 'out-of-interest' fact finding exercise!
Regards
WG

I was in the Lounge on Saturday and the airport but not lounge on Sunday.
This coming Sunday (24th) I'll be there twice.

AMS-BSL-GVA-NCE-BSL-AMS
or
as I tell folk at work
a day trip to Nice.
I am spending two night in AMS at either end so should have a chance to have fun in the city.

I was there, on the 1st computer terminal... 2 days ago.. 20th march 2002.
Funny thing to compare between North Americans and Europeans...
The computer terminals were empty. At BSL and GVA, and sometimes ZRH. At any time of the day! Whereas in USA.... !!

I was also in the lounge, on Sunday on my way to Vienna, just after security confiscated my corkscrew (yes, I know I should have realised that it would be taken, but I'd forgotten it was there).
There were some serious surfers at the computers, so I stayed by the bar. On my way back from Vienna on Monday, I snuck back into the lounge for another a visit (yes, I know, that's not allowed either, as an arriving passenger. But somehow I managed it).
I will be there again (as a departing passenger) on the 4th April, prior to taking PGA-Portugalia to Porto. Will anyone be there?
