Advice to Newbie Business Travellers.
It surely would be nice to spend that time you have (stuck at the airport!) in a business lounge where you can have a more relaxing wait. However, chances are, you still have yet to earn that Frequent Traveller or Senator membership status yet. And, most likely, you'd be flying economy. Which means you do not have access to the airport lounge.
Well, for a price, you could gain access to these exclusive airport lounges even if you are flying economy.
First off, though... what are the advantages of getting inside the lounge? What can you enjoy? It all depends on the airline and airport lounge. It varies. But, basically, you could expect a better (quieter) environment, some light refreshments and snacks, wiFi access, newspapers, etc.
How, oh how, can you get access?Airport VIP Lounge gives you the privilege of Business Class lounges in 50 European airports for 25Euro.
Priority Pass membership gives you access to over 450 airport VIP Lounges, with 3 different plans available.
Lounge Pass gives you access to 128 airport VIP Lounges.
Shop around, compare and make your choice based on your needs.
I am not sure, though, if you can declare this as "reimbursable expense".
