Didnt see an answer to this — yes it’s open. I was there in late morning so they had a sign out saying to flag down a lounge staff member for service.

Not a problem at all and they were happy to oblige. Not sure if this is the case all day or if they actively staff it in the PM

Great to hear. Will have to plan a trip to or via ZRH now that I am *G again (at least for the time being)

It used to be the case that the Arrivals Lounge was open to shorthaul pax. That was the distinction between the FRA Welcome Lounge and LX's.

Hi sorry I’m having a long layover in ZRH Sunday. Is the whiskey bar open? Are all lounges still open to everyone or we re now back to different lounges for senators and business class?

how much better is the senator food offerings? Any differences in food and booze between a and e gates?

does the alpine lounge worth it?

Any info on when D lounges might reopen? I was sadly rerouted through ZRH for an EU itinerary in three weeks or so.

I was told it would not be until 2023, as the D lounges are undergoing renovation.

I was there was last week and the Alpine lounge was not very full. Walked over to D in 5ish minutes. Not sure they currently really need the D lounges with everything else open.

Yeah, but I have a hard time relaxing when I'm sitting in a lounge knowing I have yet to go through passport control. But oh well, A it is.

Had a quick walk over to the D lounge this week.

They haven't started any renovations - no way it's reopening this year.

Are they planning to renovate the lounge before reopening it?

I had a look back in September, are they still using it as a Covid Test center?

It's not being used for anything right now
It will be 3 years since it closed in March.
