The food and drink selection offers some tempting treats. You’ll find a self-service Western-style bistro, a full-service coffee and cocktail bar, and the standout Cathay Pacific Noodle Bar with fresh noodles made just for every guest.

The lounge’s business section enables passengers to do some work while enjoying the atmosphere.Overall, this lounge is a great spot to relax before your flight, with lovely views and fantastic facilities.

The Air China Lounge in Shanghai is a spacious and well-designed lounge with two floors and an escalator in the middle. The buffet offerings may be humble, but the staff make an effort to provide a variety of food options. The seating options on both floors are plentiful, ensuring that there’s always a place to relax.

The lounge’s design is straightforward and minimalistic, which may come across as somewhat cold to some visitors. Unfortunately, there isn’t a view of the tarmac or outside scenery, but the lounge’s size compensates for this lack.

Overall, the Air China Lounge in Shanghai provides a comfortable and accommodating space for travellers to unwind and prepare for their flights.

I visited the SAS Lounge Copenhagen after my inbound flight by SAS was cancelled (well ahead of time) and I rebooked myself on an earlier Star Alliance flight. 

The SAS Lounge Copenhagen is open to SAS premium passengers as well as Business Class passengers and Gold Card Members of Star Alliance.

The lounge is decorated in a mix of urban and rural styles with well known Nordic wood furnishings. There was a comfortable seating area and  plenty of communal tables for working or enjoying a quick bite. 

This no frills lounge offers all-day buffet breakfast items, a few healthy dishes such as beetroot or chickpeas salads as well as a soup and the famous Swedish meatballs. Bread was also available but no desserts or sweet items were offered. (Maybe they follow a healthy life-style policy)

No announcements are made in the lounge and depending on the time of day it can become a little crowded.(Note that Scandinavian has drastically cut back on their long-haul network and is struggling financially. A number of their North American destinations are now operated by narrow body A320/321 aircraft and they have pulled out of the Asian market completely.

I had a comfortable and relaxed stay at the SAS Lounge in Copenhagen.

My visit to the Lufthansa Business Class Lounge in Munich Airport was an underwhelming experience and nothing to write home about. The lounge is located upstairs, above the security checkpoint and offers a partial view of the security check area). The lounge design is clean and simple, if not to say somewhat boring with no alpine or Bavarian design elements.

The lounge has a standard food and beverage offering, showers, and a small business area along with lounge chairs and a co-working space area near the buffet.

I found this lounge solid and adequate but not more than that.

The EVA Air lounge at Suvarnabhumi Airport is located at the corner of E and F gates (F1) and is open some 20 hours per day. EVA Air operates several flights daily to Taipei and Europe (Amsterdam, Vienna and London).

The EVA Air lounge is spacious, modern and offers a dining area, a common work space (bar-style tables) and a large lounging area. I visited late at night and there was a nice mood light concept in place which I liked very much.

The lounge offers Chinese, Asian and Western food (cold and hot section) as well as a full self-service bar, coffee/tea with sweet desserts including ice-cream. The lounge also offers a business corner and a shower area.

I found this lounge very pleasant and comfortable. The tarmac view on one side and the view into the F pier was also entertaining.

The Garuda Indonesia Lounge is located in Terminal 3 at Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta Airport. This is the airport’s newest terminal and is mostly frequented by Garuda itself, and some other international carriers.

I visited this lounge because I was departing on a SkyTeam partner airline.

The lounge is a mid-size average business class lounge which offers views over the terminal and the tarmac. There are a couple of dining tables, a few napping chairs, a lounge area for relaxing, a Muslim prayer room and a restroom/shower facility. The food on offer was very limited and mediocre. There was soup, a choice of two hot dishes, some bread, potato chips and a small fruit bar. Drinks on offer were soft drinks, coffee, tea and beer. Nothing really special to write home about and rather on the underwhelming side. The Garuda International Lounge serves its purpose but not more than that.

The Business Class Lounge in Vienna offers a nice view onto the tarmac but the design is more like a canteen than an exclusive Lounge. Food offering was mediocre and very limited. Most tables do not have power sockets. There is only one small toilet and two showers available inside the Lounge.

I found this Austrian Business Class Lounge to be underwhelming and lackluster.

The SWISS Alpine Lounge is located in Zurich Airport Terminal 1 Concourse A. I originally intended to visit the SWISS  Business Lounge, but at the entrance I was informed the lounge was crowded, so I walked over to the new SWISS Alpine Lounge.

Indeed, this lounge is much quieter than the others at Zurich airport. That  might come down to how hard it is to find. It is located at the entrance of Concourse A (left of the Transit counters).

This is a pretty impressive lounge with a cool design in warm wooden colours and many typical Swiss decorative elements. 

I found this a very nice place to spend time, with friendly staff and a small open kitchen where a “daily hot menu” was prepared freshly for every guest. 

The SWISS Alpine Lounge is open to business class passengers of the Lufthansa Group.
