Düsseldorf Airport Lounges (DUS): Pier A, B & C Guide
Düsseldorf Airport (DUS) has lounges on Piers A, B and C. Two are open to anyone with a pass, whatever airline you fly: the DUS Rhein Lounge on Pier B and the DUS Sky Lounge on Pier C. Both are run by the airport. The others are the Lufthansa lounges on Pier A and the Emirates Lounge on Pier C, where entry depends on your ticket or status.
The Rhein Lounge is in the Schengen area and the Sky Lounge is non-Schengen, so the right one depends on where you're flying.
