SAS ARLANDA domestic lounge open again! ;-)
Only for our EuroBonus Gold members
We have decid to re-open our domestic lounge at Arlanda, terminal 4 on January 30, 2004. We do know that many of our Gold members have missed it!
It is important to unwind, enjoy some refreshments and to have the possibility to handle business between flights.
The lounge is open in connection to alla SAS departures every day of the week. Access for EuroBonus Gold holding ticket with SAS or Star Alliance partners.

I can confirm this. The reopen date I have heard was Feb 1st so I guess they decided to open it a few days earlier.
So far I havent found any information if the lounge will only be open to EBG or if Star Gold will be able to enter as well.
Finally I think this is great great news that the lounge at ARN is back! I wonder what will happen in OSL now, will that lounge also be back?

We are missing SAS domestic at Gardermoen,Oslo. I hope the lounge will be open soon again! It is important for Star/SAS to have one reason the choose BU/WF or SK. A lounge offer will be the best weapon in the "air-war" in Norway.

Any news for other *G´s than EBG´s? I'm going to ARN on Saturday and Sunday. Will try if I can get in, perhaps service center in T4 will help me and my spouse to get inside.
I called SAS and asked and they could not confirm whether partner Gold's could get in or not
At least Hilton Slussen confirmed lounge access for this weekend stay

I passed by the Stockholm lounge this morning. A sign on the door says "Euro Bonus Gold", nothing about Star Gold. However, I did not try to enter but will do tomorrow evening when heading back home. Hopefully they'll accept my *G card as entrance ticket, but I highly doubt that.

How can it be called a lounge? It's a room with armchairs and a few tables. Hot and cold non alcoholic drinks. Nothing to eat at all! They have even removoed the TV and the internet terminals that used to be there.
Access was no problem. A Falck security guard acted lounge attendant. He watched at my MX Gold card and said welcome to me and my guest, so it's obviously not only for EBG's.
