SWISS Business and Star Alliance access at Zurich's Schengen Dock A.

About this lounge

The SWISS Business Lounge at Zurich Airport's Dock A is the airline's Schengen-side Business lounge, conveniently located just a few steps beyond the security checkpoint and a short walk from most Schengen gates. It welcomes premium and elite Star Alliance passengers departing on flights within Europe's Schengen zone — so SWISS Business Class travellers and eligible Star Alliance flyers heading to intra-European destinations. Star Alliance Gold and Miles & More Senator members can step up to the adjacent and slightly better-appointed SWISS Senator Lounge, but for most Business-cabin passengers this is the lounge to use. Entry is quick and self-service: guests check in by scanning their boarding pass at the automated gates. The handy location near the heart of the Schengen departures area makes it an easy stop before a short or medium-haul flight.
