Glad to see they are extending the SEN hours as well - would be a really long day otherwise

Curiously, LX did not update its website in connection with lounge openings. It still displays the 1 June situation.

https://www.swiss.com/ch/en/fly/airp...lounges-zurich

@LX if you read this: do not forget to update your lounge openings.

I assume from LX's email that I copied yesterday above that the GVA lounges opening is not yet on the agenda.

Given the FCL A open and E closed....what features except the marvellous view on the tarmac isn't available in the FCL A in comparison to the FCL E?
(haven't been in the FCL A for a while)

The views and the day rooms and the convenience of being closer to the E Gates.

Although Taking the limo over to E and then directly board your flight is still convenient. Or if you have too much time spend some time in the Senator Whiskey bar.

better than the SEN lounge

also they arrange private transport from A to E for baording - so at least that one is back!

Great but only if you need to leave FCL A before 19.00 ?

That's it? Hopefully this is just a slow rollout and things will be back to normal by the end of next month.

I do not understand what prevents LX from resuming regular menus in FCL A. Restaurants are back to normal.

I will be in FLC A on Saturday morning and report on the breakfast menu (if any).

Number of lounge visitors vs. effort (staffing, supplies). Not defending their choice, just stating it.

Just sitting in the FCL A and only eavesdropping a bit what other guests order. The kitchen seems to be ready to do most breakfast dishes and one guest ordered a beef tartare… the grappas are gone.

Sitting in FCL A now. Just had a very nice Egg Benedict and ordered a Beef Tatare. They also have White Wine Risotto with Scampi and some other things (Quinoa Bowl, Smoked Salmon etc.). No printed menu, but the manager told me what they have and also mentioned that the kitchen will do their best to accommodate other requests… Overall a very nice experience.
