The new SWISS Alpine Lounge can accommodate 100 travelers and is located in Terminal A. Access to the lounge is available to Miles & More Senators, Star Alliance Gold Members and Business Class Passengers on SWISS and other Lufthansa Group airlines. The lounge has an “alpine flair,” blending the rustic charm of a mountain hut with comfortable and contemporary quality Swiss materials. Many elements of the Alpine Lounge are handmade by Swiss crafts folk, such as the bespoke light-wood elements and furniture, alpine-style carpets and custom cushion covers. High windows offer unobstructed views of the active apron area and long communal wood tables reinforce the “hut-like” ambiance and experience.

Swiss wine and spirits are featured, and an ecofriendly dispensing system has been incorporated in the design. The lounge is open Monday through Friday, 5:30AM to 6:30PM.
