[about the new SEN lounge]

Been there on Friday 18th (April): the "old" Swiss lounge is still a HUGE mess.

The bar upstairs was fine, but all the rear area downstairs (the one that had the computers and the second buffet) is closed, making the lounge definitely cramped.

Let's hope to see something new soon...

LX should also consider to open up a lounge in Dock E, there is enough space available on the top level and this would enable to spread out the crowd and prevent the main SWISS lounge to be less crowded and also the Bellevue lounge. As an example LH also has various lounges at MUC and FRA airport and no only on main lounge.

It did not look finished on Thursday (you can see the mess, when you enter/exit the FCL).

I'd assume it'll be at the end of may one or 2 weeks before the Euro will begin

The new SEN lounge is opened now from Monday this week. But this lounge is now used also as the Business lounge, because of the refurbishment of the old lounge.

The business class lounge should be open now at the beginning of the EURO 2008 (7. June 2008) and then the SEN lounge is really a SEN lounge.

The refurbishment is really nice !! ^

This confuses me:

WHO CAN USE IT? Swiss and Lufthansa first class passengers, Miles and More members with HON Circle status and first class passengers who are flying Swiss as an operating carrier. The lounge is open from 6am to 9.30pm.
What is the difference between Swiss and Lufthansa first class passengers on one side and first class passengers, who are flying Swiss as an operating carrier on the other side?

If I understand this correctly (and I am not sure I do), this means that lounge access is granted for passengers
a) holding a F ticket for an LX or LH flight number, irrespective of operating carrier
b) flying F on LX metal, irrespective of flight number on the ticket

Makes sense?

Yeah, the codeshare nonsense is back. I always forget that.

Makes sense now. ^

I'd gues at peak times this is very crowded now. Will the new Business Class lounge be as big as the former Business FTL / SEN lounge?

I still think it would be nice if LX would also have a SEN and FTL/Business lounge at Dock E. OS and LH also have more than one lounge area at FRA and VIE respectively
