IST *A Lounge question
 
Hi All,

I'll be flying via IST to a destination in Europe. I will have 5 hours between my flights. Is there more than one *A lounge at IST airport?
Any info on the lounge is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I think there is only the CIP lounge, but try your own search http://www.staralliance.com/en/benef...lounge-finder/

Doesn't matter how many lounges are at IST, once you enter the TK J lounge (*G), you won't want to leave ;)

We were there few weeks after opening in August 2011.

One of the best *A lounge in the whole network IMHO!^

One of the best I've ever come across. You will enjoy it!

Far and away the best *A lounge I've ever been to. Don't go anywhere else other than the TK lounge. Just don't get too carried away and miss your flight like I nearly did! :)

what a dump!!! last time I was there in 2010 on a mileage fun muc-ist-fra-mxp I couldn't get out of the dump. fast enough. it had 5 hours connection time ans I was the only one in the lounge with a dirty mouldy smelling hammam. I luckily have priority pass so I ended up spending time in the lounge near the smoking area

The lounge was recently renovated and is not (in my opinion) the best in the entire lounge network. Perhaps you should look at the pictures posted above?
