Of course traffic some was lost to the trains but many were lost to the trauma that is modern T3. It was a passenger experience delight, even without lounge access. Nowadays, domestic at MAN is summed up by BA not even caring enough to have their own lounge anymore. Yeah, follow the money, I know....

I would totally agree with you on all counts. BA lounge is the same as Lufthansa, and believe me I have told them some what repeatedly that it is dire.
