Hours conflict: Aena airport page 05:00-23:00; Aena VIP Services store 04:00-23:59; Priority Pass 05:30-22:30. Location side conflict: Priority Pass says 'after passport control', but Aena places it in the boarding area and 2025 reviews (flyctory, TripAdvisor) say non-Schengen (e.g. UK) passengers visit it before passport control, so it is treated as Schengen-side. Large lounge (380+ seats, secondary), no showers. Effectively the only open lounge at AGP while Relax & Go is closed.
