Star Alliance recently began offering paid access to the Star Alliance-branded lounge at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport. Access to Star Alliance passengers regardless of membership status or cabin class is available for a nominal fee, joining complimentary access for Star Alliance Gold members and first- and business-class passengers.

This is the fifth of six Star Alliance-branded lounges offering paid access. The others include those in Rome (FCO), Rio De Janeiro (GIG), Buenos Aires (EZE) and Los Angeles (LAX).

“We are pleased to announce that our Amsterdam lounge has become the latest Star Alliance-branded lounge to offer pay-per-use entry,” said Christian Draeger, VP Customer Experience, Star Alliance. “With this, all passengers passing through Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport on Star Alliance carriers have the option to relax in our stylish, well-appointed lounge, regardless of cabin class or membership status. The lounge is especially convenient for passengers travelling within the Schengen zone who want to kick back and enjoy a meal or get some work done comfortably before they board their flight.”

Located airside in Departures Hall 2 after security clearance, the Star Alliance Amsterdam lounge is well-positioned for passengers traveling to or from European destinations in the Schengen Zone. Fourteen Star Alliance member airlines operate from the airport to 20 destinations in 16 countries. The lounge features original Dutch furniture and art; free WiFi; and spaces for business and leisure travelers, such as personal work booths, a communal worktable, a bar, and dining and relaxation areas.

Pre-book and purchase lounge access vouchers on Star Alliance’s website. A confirmation email will include a QR code valid for the day and time selected. Vouchers cost 50 euros for three hours.

I wish this day could last forever!” my windswept 9-year-old exclaimed, his voice soaring over the Mediterranean. He gripped the helm of a Bali 4.6 sailing catamaran off the coast of Marseille, his sun- bleached hair whipping in the salty breeze. The scent of the sea mingled with the aroma of warm baguettes drifting from the Côte d’Azur shoreline. Our captain, a seasoned sailor, subtly adjusted course, letting my son feel the exhilarating pull of the wind against the sails. As the waves lapped against the hull, I realized this was no ordinary vacation — this was freedom, unfiltered.
