My long journey home from a status run to Hong Kong included flights from Hong Kong to Chicago on ANA via Tokyo Haneda. I had a chance to try the ANA lounge and was impressed with the offering. If...
Singapore SilverKris Lounge In Hong Kong Disappoints
During my status run to Hong Kong, I returned to the US on ANA in business class and tried my first Star Alliance lounge in Hong Kong, the Singapore SilverKris Lounge. Despite Singapore’s great reputation, it disappointed. If you...
Review: Petra Lounge Amman (AMM)
An alternative Priority Pass option to the larger Royal Jordanian Crown Lounge, the Petra Lounge offers comfort and food, but I’d stick to the RJ lounge. You’ll find this 24/7 lounge near Gate 208 in the north pier of...
Review: Dilmun Lounge Bahrain (BAH)
During my long layover in Bahrain I took a few moments to visit one of the airport’s Priority Pass lounges, called the Dilmun Lounge. It is located near Gate 16 on the departures level and open 24/7. Lounge amenties included:...
Review: Gulf Air Business Class Lounge Bahrain (BAH)
I arrived in Bahrain at 8:55 A.M. and my connecting flight did not depart until 5:55 P.M., leaving me all day in BAH. I’ve been into Bahrain before and opted to head straight for the Gulf Air Falcon Gold...
Review: GVK First Class Lounge Mumbai (BOM)
We laugh about Emirates First Class being gaudy and pretentious, but the GVK First Class lounge in Mumbai Terminal 2 takes ostentatiousness to a whole new level. That’s a backhanded compliment, but I did enjoy this lounge. It’s gold and...
Review: American Express Centurion Lounge Mexico City (MEX)
I spent five hours in the The American Express Centurion Lounge in Mexico City and wished I had stayed longer. I visited the Terminal 2 location during my recent extended layover in Mexico City, not really knowing what to...
Review: Aeromexico Lounge Mexico City (MEX)
After spending most of the evening in the nearby American Express Centurion Lounge, the Aeromexico Salon Premier in was quite a letdown. Terminal 2 of Mexico City’s Benito Juarez International Airport features two Aeromexico lounges within close proximity of...
Review: Delta Sky Club Los Angeles (LAX)
The Delta Sky Club in Terminal 2 at LAX offered everything I needed for a productive visit prior to my flight. If I’m using a lounge in the morning, the three most important amenities I am looking for are...
Review: Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse Washington Dulles (IAD)
The Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse in Washington Dulles is now a Priority Pass lounge. A nice one at that. For Priority Pass members, it is available daily from 6:00 A.M. to 1:30 P.M. Your membership card technically gives you three...
Review: EasyGo VIP International Lounge – Hangzhou (HGH)
The EasyGo VIP International Lounge in Hangzhou (HGH) served one key purpose: I was able to charge my devices prior to my AirAsia flight. You might have trouble finding this Priority Pass lounge unless you can read Chinese. Look...
Review: United Club Fort Lauderdale (FLL)
Before my flight to Newark last Saturday I spent about an hour in the Fort Lauderdale United Club. It served its purpose nicely. As you might expect on a Saturday afternoon in Florida, the airport was packed. Thus, the...
Review: United Club Newark (EWR)
United’s only true club in Newark’s Terminal C is overcrowded, but functional. I say only true club, noting that a beautiful Polaris Lounge is now available for longhaul business class passengers. This is an incredible lounge, but not accessible...
Review: LuxxLounge Frankfurt (FRA)
The LuxxLounge in Frankfurt (FRA) is hardly a spectacular lounge and yet serves a very useful purpose. This Priority Pass lounge is located landside, meaning it is before security. As you enter Terminal 1 (Lufthansa Terminal), follow the signs...
Review: SkyTeam Lounge London Heathrow (LHR)
UPDATE: The SkyTeam London Heathrow (LHR) lounge is permanently closed. The SkyTeam Lounge London Heathrow is an excellent Priority Pass Lounge in LHR’s Terminal 4. After passing through the security checkpoint, the lounge isn’t far. Look up for the Etihad/SkyTeam...
Review: Emirates Lounge Los Angeles (LAX)
While not as fancy as other top-tier first class lounges, the Emirates Lounge at LAX offers a truly exceptional buffet and plenty of room to spread out prior to your trip to Dubai. The lounge is only open between...
Review: Lufthansa Lounge London Heathrow (LHR)

Review: United Club London Heathrow (My Favorite United Club)
The United Club in London Heathrow is my favorite United Club in the network and a great place to work or eat prior to your flight. This lounge does get crowded in the morning, just like the nearby Air...
Review: Plaza Premium Lounge – London Heathrow T2 Arrivals (LHR)
If you’re arriving into Terminal 2 at London Heathrow with a Priority Pass card, stop by the Plaza Premium Arrivals Lounge for coffee or a meal after your flight. This lounge is geared nicely for economy class travelers. Instead...
Review: Lufthansa Lounge Milan (MXP)
At 6pm, this lounge was far more crowded than the gate area. Then again, the gate area does not have a nice selection of complimentary food and drink. So choose your poison. I was flying from Milan Malpensa (MXP)...
