KLM opens new flagship Crown Lounge at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport
Dec 14, 2018, 03:49 PMThis looks really impressive. Some European airlines have fantastic taste in design and bring a real flair to the lounge experience. But I am not sure about the wisdom of putting a bar on the top floor when you have to walk down all those steps to catch your flight!

Renovations at the Qantas Melbourne domestic Business Lounge
