General Question - Pilot Lounges

[pilau]

Hi everybody!
I'm new here in this forum!

I have a few questions about pilot lunges:

1. What are they exactly?
2. Where can you usually find them?
3. Are they open for every pilot?
4. Do they cost money?

Thanks a lot for your time!

In my travels around Europe, I have found many airports have a pilots lounge.
they are normaly available for visiting aircrew and there has useualy been no charge.

Thanks BALLSOUT.
What do they usually offer in the lunges? A place to sleep and eat, things like that?

Who has time for a lounge? These aren't 'gentlemens clubs', with leather chairs and private Costa Coffees! They are a place to get your mail, meet the crew, get your briefing, decide your fuel and get your ass off to work! Places to sleep? I wish!
