Recently while travelling through Europe with Lufthansa, we arrived in Frankfurt just in time to visit the Lufthansa Welcome Lounge, located directly after baggage claim in arrivals area B.

The lounge is open from 5 am to 1pm (the last admission is at 12:30pm) luckily our flight from New York arrived just in time to have a quick visit to the lounge before it closed. Even though we arrived towards the end of opening times the staff in the lounge were more than happy to accommodate us with anything we needed, unfortunately, the showers had already closed for the day but the rest of the lounge was ours.

The lounge is split over two levels with the main lounge, dining and business centre on the top floor and a 26 shower rooms on the lower level. The lounge area had plenty of space to sit and relax after your flight, as well as two tv screens with entertainment in both English and German. The business centre was fully equipped with private desks, charging stations and a private meeting so you could start preparing for your day ahead as soon as you land.

The self-serve selection had both breakfast and lunch options as well as an array of drinks including coffee, tea, juice, soft drinks and some beer and wine. The dining options consisted of quick light meals, that could be eaten before heading out or while working in the lounge, including sandwiches, pastries, fruit, and of course German pretzels.

Often when you arrive after a long haul flight the very first thing you want to do is have a shower and perhaps a nap, but most of the time the arrival time is too early to go to your hotel the Lufthansa Welcome Lounge is the perfect stop as you move through the airport with all of the facilities you need to feel refreshed and ready to go.
