Duringmy Four Seasons Yacht via Turkmenistan and Saudi Arabia adventure, I flew Lufthansa’s Boeing 787 Allegris business class from Austin (AUS) to Frankfurt (FRA). I had an extended layover in Frankfurt before my Turkmenistan Airlines flight to Ashgabat (ASB), so I decided to spend some time in the Lufthansa Welcome Lounge, which is Lufthansa’s arrivals lounge at its hub airport.
Qatar Airways has entered a Memorandum of Understanding with Priority Pass, the world’s largest independent airport lounge and travel experiences programme, to offer enhanced value and rewards to business travellers through its Beyond Business corporate travel programme.
If you value airport lounge access, odds are that you’re familiar with Priority Pass, which is the world’s largest network of airport lounges.

Duringmy Four Seasons Yacht via Turkmenistan and Saudi Arabia adventure, I had the chance to check out the new Frankfurt Airport (FRA) Terminal 3, prior to my Turkmenistan Airlines flight to Ashgabat (ASB). Before that flight, I visited the Priority Lounge in the non-Schengen area of Frankfurt Terminal 3, which is the primary contract and Priority Pass lounge there.
