New Lounge in Ben Gurion Airport
« on: November 15, 2018, 03:56:32 PM »
I was  in Ben Gurion Airport T3 and while I was walking through Concourse E, I saw a Dan Lounge there. There was a sign up saying that its not available to the public yet. Does anyone have anymore info when its opening and will it be like Dan Lounge B and C or will it be a Business Lounge?

The Dan lounge B is already a renovated business-class only lounge. Status and priority pass can only use the C lounge

You are speaking about the Dan+ Lounge. That is a business lounge. Dan Lounges B and C are identical and accessible with Priority Pass.

They used to be identical before one was renovated.

How does it compare to the Dan +, the business lounge next to the shul?

What time were you there or what are the hours of this lounge?

Was there 2 months ago at around 6:30am and there was a sign that it's closed.

The one next to the shul was closed. The one in E is not near the shul it’s open for j class.

They closed Dan+ by the shul? Is The E concourse one nicer then it?

Was never in the Dan+ but the officially new Dan at E is very disappointing imho.
