    New Review – Global Lounge Kuala Lumpur (KUL)

    📍 Location & Access We entered with our valid Business Class boarding pass for the day. From my research, walk-in bookings are possible on-site, but the popular Priority Pass is NOT accepted. 🛋️ Amenities What immediately catches the eye is the long window front that not only brings a smile to every aviation geek’s face but also invites lingering. There are plenty of seating options (with power outlets) perfectly distributed throughout different areas – from single seats to small tables for comfortable group seating. Walking through the entire lounge, you’ll find a buffet with live cooking station. During…

    New Review – Singapore Airlines Lounge Taipei (TPE)

    During my layover in Taipei, I had time to visit not only the Eva Air Lounge but also the Singapore Airlines Lounge and Priority Pass lounges. The Singapore Lounge is just a few minutes walk from Eva Airways and was easily accessible with my HON/Star Alliance Gold status and Eva boarding pass. 📍 Location & Access Access Business Class or Star Alliance Gold+ Location Terminal 2, 4th Floor Hours 08:20 AM–5:45 PM daily Perfectly reachable for Star Alliance passengers – no pre-boarding stress. 🛋️ Amenities & Layout The layout is functional but not particularly…

    Ethiopian Airlines ist aktuell der einzige Star Alliance Carrier, welcher regelmässig Sansibar anfliegt. Im Rahmen meiner Reise nach SansibEthiopian Airlines is currently the only Star Alliance carrier regularly flying to Zanzibar. During my Zanzibar trip, a stopover in Addis Ababa was required.

    New Review – Sala VIP Lounge – Valencia Airport (VLC)

    Thanks to a fantastic invitation from Mr. MuellAir, I had the chance to visit Valencia for an event.

    New Lounge Review – United Club Hongkong(HKG)

    The United Club Lounge is located in Terminal 1 of Hong Kong International Airport (HKG), near Gate 60. 📍 Location & Access Access is granted to Business and First Class passengers on United Airlines or any Star Alliance partner airline.

After a long closure due to the pandemic, the lounge reopened on October 8, 2025. Its location is well thought out — easy to reach after security, clearly signposted, and convenient for those with some time before departure.However, if you have a tight connection, allow about 10–15…

    New Review – Airport Lounge Stuttgart (STR)

    📍 Location The lounge is located right after security in Terminal 3, upstairs in the gallery area. With only 150 m² and space for 42 guests, it’s on the smaller side. That makes it feel cozy, but it can also get crowded quickly. 🛎️ Access Entry is currently quite restrictive: 👉 According to the airport, changes are planned for the future. As of now, these rules apply. 🍽️ Amenities Die Lounge besteht im Wesentlichen aus einem großen Raum, der sich zur Fensterfront hin Ăśffnet. ✨ Highlights: 🥂 Drinks Some guests seemed to interpret the small bottled drinks as “takeaway options”…

    ✈️ Lounge Review: Schengen CIP Lounge – Faro Airport (FAO)

    Faro Airport (FAO) is the main gateway to Portugal’s stunning Algarve region and sees a high volume of seasonal traffic, especially in summer. While the airport itself is fairly compact, it offers two contract lounges: one in the Schengen area, the other in non-Schengen. We recently visited the Schengen CIP Lounge â€“ and while it ticks a few boxes, it’s far from a premium lounge experience. 📍 Location & Access – Hidden, but reachable After clearing security and passing through the mandatory duty-free zone, follow the signs toward the CIP Lounge. Signage is decent but not obvious â€“…
