Re: SN presents "The Loft", its new A Pier Lounge

What are the access requirements for those on a non C-class ticket? is M&M Frequent Traveller enough, or do you need to be Senator/Gold? The Star Alliance rules differ from airport to Airport .. In Lux, Zurich, Munich, Frankfurt, Frequent Traveller is godo to enter lounges, but not in Vienna .....

If the strike continues, there is a chance he might get bussed to Düsseldorf. Although I have no real information about that. All passengers will get flight info via SMS if their GSM Number is in the reservation.
