"For everybody? Or just those that are top of the gravy train." Have either of you two checked the difference in cost between First & Business Class and Economy Class. Those who fly First and Business pay for the benefits (except of course the HiSo freeloaders) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katipo Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I will be interested to see how much nicer (and much bigger( this renovated one is compared to the smaller ones at either end of the airport. The smaller ones are usually closer to my gate, and thus more convenient. There selection of food if often quite limited however, although that doesn't matter too much since we are fed shortly after takeoff anyway.

Must give it a try if so Yes it is Star Alliance. You can use it even if flying THAI. It is a decent lounge, better than the old TG lounges. But I have just used the new THAI premium lounge (next to D gates) and it is a big improvement so would probably choose that first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alt Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Thanks. There's so many lounges, I really don't know which one to go to! As mentioned we're flying J with Turkish, so can use any Star Alliance lounge. Any recommendations? ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would choose based on which is closer to the departure gate for your flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned we're flying J with Turkish, so can use any Star Alliance lounge. Any recommendations? ???? You will find many opinions on www.flyertalk.com/forum/thai-airways-royal-orchid-plus Depends on what you want, how much time you have, time of the day (which lounges are open and which are full or not really relaxing to sit in), if you want to be near the gate. SQ and EVA lounges are popular on above site. Too many people in my opinion criticise the TG lounges - food has impoved in last year or so (but food is not important to me wehn choosing a lounge), new lounge is very welcome. Food and drink good in SQ lounge, but food seems to be the same every time I go there. If not too busy then I often go there, but late evenings especially on Sunday can be very busy.
