It is tricky and they are discriminatory against certain ethnic groups, I think. I purchased the 4 hrs pass and they didn't let me in, the manager and the front desk person told me you can only access 4 hrs before boarding. The customer buys 4 hrs pass he or she will use at their convenience. For International flights, you have to pre-check in 2-3 hrs before the boarding time what is the use. when I purchase my pass tell 4hrs pass 1 Business Class Lounge Access Up To 4 Hours 26 Feb 2025 From: ABU DHABI ZAYED INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT Non-refundable To: NEW YORK JOHN F KENNEDY INTL Flight: EY1 I am so upset I need compensation for my mental and physical agony. The way Etihad treats Indians sooooo bad if we the customers not there the future of Etihad will be like Kuwait Airlines and time had proved many times.

Its a very good question, I have 12 hours in the Etihad biz lounge in February. Would happily pay the extra for 1st if they were some super premium wines available, like Grange for example. Would bowl over the 215USD easily I reckon!

I would be curious to know the wines they offer at the First Class Lounge. Does anyone know? I remember a video on Youtube where a frequent flyer was in in the First Class Lounge of Emirates in Dubai and the wine selection was amazing. They had, among others, a Richebourg, a marvellous wine from Burgundy. The retail price per bottle was USD 700-800. If Etihad offers such wines, it's an excellent reason to buy the First Class Access for USD 215.

Is it really worth the money? Think about it, it is just an experience for a few hours.

Ben, Any intel on the AUH Terminal A Hotel? Traveling in early April and have a 9hr overnight layover. And wondering if the Nap Room in AUH Business Class Lounge would be appropriate for an overnight sleep - maybe 5 or 6 hr?
