Where we'd actually go.
Executive Lounge
The Executive Lounge in Terminal 2 is the most flexible lounge at GDN — it takes Priority Pass, DragonPass, SkyTeam and oneworld, sells walk-in entry, and sits airside past passport control near gates 11-18. A manned bar pours local specialities, so it works for the most travellers leaving Gdansk.
Airport Executive Lounge
The Airport Executive Lounge sits in the Main Terminal's Schengen area by gates 7-8, after security but before passport control. With Star Alliance access and a calm, low-noise room, it's the natural pick if you're flying within Europe and don't pass through immigration.

Don't hold a membership or status? The non-Schengen Executive Lounge in Terminal 2 also sells a paid day pass, so you can pay per visit and still get the airside lounge near gates 11-18, complete with its manned bar of local Polish specialities.
