Which lounges?
 
I'm flying Thai into Zurich and Swiss out of Zurich - both in First. I arrive around 6am and leave around noon. Which lounge(s) will I be able to access?

Thanks.

If you go Schengen-side because you are leaving on LX First, you can access the LX First Class lounge.

If you stay Non-Schengen, depending on where you are departing, you can go to the SEN lounge in B/D or the Panorama Lounge in E.

With six hours, I recommend the LX First lounge or if it's a nice day, a little trip into Zürich.

Sorry, I should have given more details. I fly in from Thailand and my second flight is to North America. So, I'll stay Non-Schengen.

I was going to ask as a second question if 6 hours (in January) was worth a trip into Zurich.

I assume that, if I end up routing the same way there, I cannot access the LX First lounge since I won't be departing on LX First, right?

Thanks for the quick response.

If you don't need a Schengen visa, I would recommend going Schengen-side. The Sen lounge in B/D is, errm, poor.

Six hours is enough for a nice trip into Zürich, I'd have a look at the weather, if it's sunny, it's a cold but nice walk down from the Station to the Lake.

I have used the LX first lounge when arriving in LX first, but I was departing in LX C.
