Are there any lounges open in GVA at all, even PP?

It was open last week - I used it with no problems.

Was there yesterday. SEN is open and has a small dedicated area for HON/First. There is a rope separating this area. In the beginning of my stay they were serving coffee and drinks to this section. Everything else is the same: sandwiches, soft drinks, coffee and desserts.

Total joke this morning in ZRH, big queue (+20pax) in front of the only open A Lounge. Also the HON section was full, and no separate queue.

Swiss definitely has an (extremely awkward, at least for many of us) culture of “walk to the front if your HON and we will look after you”

Even that didn't work. It was completely full, also the HON part!

Yesterday the lineup was at least 25 people long by the time I got in the lounge (when I joined the line, there were about 10 in front of me, took about 20 min). The lounge attendant would periodically go up and down the line, encouraging people to leave the line and explain they only have 66 seats (that must be the main section only). Tough argument to make as you are lined up along the windows of (and staring at) the shuttered C class lounge.

Wasn’t really worth a wait for more than 2-3 minutes - it still felt packed and the food was mediocre.

Was in the A ZRH lounge today, lovely breakfast of scrambled eggs made on demand and a few lovely fresh cheese and salami sandwiches.

only thing that I felt they can improve is to actually have fresh juice and not the cheap sugary stuff

lounge was reasonably busy, they had staff and higher up executives without a uniform welcoming arrivals in the lounge

I was at the A SEN lounge today for lunch. Great experience, no line up, decent food, tables were spaced out, etc. Was definitely worth the trek from D-gates - 1000x better than sitting at an empty gate for a couple of hours.

ZRH A Lounge Showers

Are the showers available in this scaled down version of the SWISS A Lounge in ZRH?

Sen A at lunchtime today, busy but no queue.

F/HON section completely full, as with other reports here, we were lucky to get a seat. I don’t know how they can’t justify opening another space with reduced catering or whatever....

The limo service was also missed as we departed from a bus gate, at least the busses weren’t shoulder-to-shoulder full.
