Looks like the new Alpine lounge + D lounges are closed until end of April:



Current information on the SWISS lounges at Zurich and Geneva Airport

Due to the exceptional circumstances caused by the spread of the coronavirus and the associated decline in demand, SWISS is reducing the number of lounge facilities at Zurich and Geneva Airport until the end of April for the time being. The following lounges are still available:


• Zurich, SWISS First lounge terminal A (access for first class guest and HON Circle member only)

• Zurich, SWISS First lounge terminal E (access for first class guest and HON Circle member only)

• Zurich, SWISS Senator lounge terminal A

• Zurich, SWISS Senator lounge terminal E (new opening hours: 06:00 – 13:30)

• Zurich, SWISS Business lounge terminal A (new opening hours: 05:30 – 19:00)

• Zurich, SWISS Business lounge terminal E

• Zurich, SWISS arrival lounge

• Geneva, SWISS Senator lounge

Ok - so meeting in the lounge is a problem, but meeting in the (even smaller) airplane is fine ?
Whatever... this is just cost savings !

They clearly say in the mail that this is is a demand issue - not a health one.

So, no business lounge in Geneva by the looks of it. If any of you are on flights to France from GVA, the Air France lounge (to which SWISS pax are directed for French departures) is being renovated anyway.

Effective when? I was in the D SEN lounge this morning and it was business as usual

Damn. Makes me wish I missed that connection the other week after all... don't know if I'll get a chance to stop by in Zurich in May, provided that it will be business as usual by then even.

I was chatting with Swiss today about lounge access to the First class lounge, here´s part of the reply: " ... You are entitled tot he First Class lounge however also note that as of the 11th of March the Zurich Lounge will be closed until further notice".

Can anyone confirm this? Is both the First Class lounges in ZRH also closed from today?

Reading the first post, the First Class lounges in ZRH are open. The one in GVA seems to be closed, as it is not on the list.

So that just leaves Business / Sen / First in A and Business in E left.

No point in flying now :-)

Well - no flights, no lounges... Makes sense...
It won't take long anyway until they close the airports completely. I know - outrageous - but Norway and some other countries started already.

Senator (sub-) lounge in Heathrow also closed.

Pity - it would have been really quiet.

GVA First and SEN closed as of yesterday. All directed to Business Lounge which can now due to government restrictions only hold 50 people. Queue of irritated pax in stuffy hall outside not impressed. They have closed a decent sized private section of it behind the back wall for HON/F pax.. no F&B there but you get privacy and social distancing!

All lounges in both Zürich and Geneva are now closed.

Really really no point flying now

When can we expect the reopening of LX lounges in ZRH? The website says, we can use the Aspire lounge. How can the Aspire lounge open, but LX lounges cannot?
