My business class ticket on Turkish Airlines gives me access to this lounge – both being a member of Star Alliance.

It’s spotlessly clean, modern, bright, and even has a terrace with a view to the tarmac.

There is a small selection of food, mainly salads and a couple of hot buffet dishes, but there is also a made-to-order area with pulled pork and chicken burgers, pasta, and other dishes.

The hot drink selection is huge, including Chai Lattes, decafs of every variety, Swiss hot chocolate etc.

The WiFi is strong and I download a new K-drama I have started watching in case there is nothing interesting on board later.

There is also a nice quiet zone where you can lie down on special flat sofas. It’s quite comfy.

After about an hour or so I make my way to the boarding gate.
