The alliance's own Schiphol lounge — oneworld Business, First and eligible status.

About this lounge

The oneworld Lounge (Lounge No.40) is the alliance's dedicated lounge at Amsterdam Schiphol — fittingly, the second oneworld-branded lounge worldwide, and built in the footprint of the former British Airways lounge in the non-Schengen area. It welcomes oneworld Business and First Class passengers and eligible Emerald and Sapphire status holders flying a qualifying non-Schengen route out of Schiphol. The lounge offers a buffet, a bar, a mix of relaxation and work-friendly seating, and Wi-Fi to keep you connected before a long-haul departure. For oneworld flyers without their own carrier lounge at AMS, this is the home base; access follows your cabin and frequent-flyer tier rather than a paid membership.
