I am arriving into FRA on first class in Lh from USA. My question is if I book a separate flight now from FRA to LHR same day in business class, will I be able to use the LH first class lounge? Will these flights be then considered transiting flights even though booked separately? Thanks.

Hi Sam,
The Lufthansa first class lounge at FRA is available to passengers upon arrival, so there is no need to book an additional ticket.

Hi Jarrod,
I will be arriving in Frankfurt on a United Polaris Business class ticket and then traveling on to Turkey on a non-star alliance airline SunExpress. Can I access the Lufthansa lounge during my layover in Frankfurt?
Thank you,
Sean

Hi Sean,
It’s not possible to use the lounge on arrival, but if you have a credit card that provides you with a Priority Pass Select membership, there are lounges available in Frankfurt: https://www.prioritypass.com/lounges/germany/frankfurt-main
Best,

Is there any Lufthansa or Star Alliance lounge in Malaga Airport, Spain?

Hi Ted – I searched AGP at Star Alliance’s Lounge Finder and the Sala VIP Europa (Aena) looks to be the only Star Alliance lounge in Malaga. Thanks for reading!

Thank you for the reply, Keri. I am a Premier Gold member and flying Lufthasa. May be able to use Sala VIP Europa.

Which Lufthansa & Swiss First class lounges can you access with an Amex Centurion card? The table above doesn’t specify which ones but I seem to remember that it was limited.

Hi Karim – If you use Amex’s Global Lounge Collection locator by airport, you should be able to see which lounges you have access to. Thanks for reading!

Interesting that you would have a Chase Sapphire Preferred card recommended advertisement on this thread when I just tried to use mine for access in Munich and was turned away. My travel compatriot tried to get me in as his guest with his AMEX, but was told no. Now I’m in the terminal pondering my Chase life choices.

Hi Louis. Unfortunately, the Chase Sapphire Preferred card does not come with lounge access. The Chase Sapphire Reserve card does come with complimentary Priority Pass Select membership which includes access to over 1.300 lounge and lounge-alternative properties worldwide.
