CONCLUSION
After visiting the Lufthansa Business Lounge and the Aegean Business Lounge, I headed to Area A where my flight was departing and where I had access to the Swissport Executive Lounge. This is no doubt the nicest lounge of the three primarily because it is being used by big airlines like Qatar Airways and Etihad. The lounge has a separate smoking room, a massage area (which was temporarily closed), workstations, an aquarium dividing the two dining tables and there are toilets as well. Unfortunately, the food selection on the buffet was quite basic with only donuts (donuts with cheese, donuts with sausage, etc) and some sandwiches. There was no warm food unlike the Lufthansa Lounge in Area B Schengen. Overall, this is a very nice and spacious lounge with modern design although the food selection from the buffet could have been better.
