In Terminal 1, Priority Pass, DragonPass, SkyTeam and oneworld status and a LoungeDeal pass all have a lounge; in Terminal 2, only Star Alliance Gold status or a premium-cabin ticket gets you into a Lufthansa lounge. Match the lounge to your gate letter and Schengen status before you clear passport control.

Airport Lounge World, Airport Lounge Europe and the Air France KLM Lounge in Terminal 1 can be booked on LoungeDeal with no status or membership. The live price is shown on each lounge page, and each pass covers one visit.
