The LuxxLounge in Frankfurt (FRA) is hardly a spectacular lounge and yet serves a very useful purpose. This Priority Pass lounge is located landside, meaning it is before security. As you enter Terminal 1 (Lufthansa Terminal), follow the signs...
Review: SkyTeam Lounge London Heathrow (LHR)
UPDATE: The SkyTeam London Heathrow (LHR) lounge is permanently closed. The SkyTeam Lounge London Heathrow is an excellent Priority Pass Lounge in LHR’s Terminal 4. After passing through the security checkpoint, the lounge isn’t far. Look up for the Etihad/SkyTeam...

Review: Lufthansa Lounge Milan (MXP)
At 6pm, this lounge was far more crowded than the gate area. Then again, the gate area does not have a nice selection of complimentary food and drink. So choose your poison. I was flying from Milan Malpensa (MXP)...
Review: Singapore Airlines SilverKris Lounge London (LHR)
The late morning is a great time to to visit the Singapore Airlines SilverKris lounge in London Heathrow (LHR) T2. I nearly had it to myself. The lounge is open daily from 7:15a.m. to 10:00p.m. and I’m sure it...

Review: JAL First Class Lounge Tokyo (NRT)
The Japan Airlines First Class Lounge in Tokyo Narita (NRT) is a great business class lounge…but doesn’t cut it as a first class lounge. Even though this review is from 2016, a report from View from the Wing only...
