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: 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)...
Review: Singapore Airlines SilverKris Lounge London (LHR)
The late morning is a great time to to visit the Singapore Airlines SilverKris lounge in London Heathrow (LHR) T2. I nearly had it to myself. The lounge is open daily from 7:15a.m. to 10:00p.m. and I’m sure it...
Review: No1 Lounge – London Heathrow T3 (LHR)
The No1 Lounge in Terminal 3 at London Heathrow is a decent Priority Pass Lounge that is worth a visit if you want a light meal before your flight. Having had quite enough of the British Airways Galleries Lounge...
Review: British Airways Galleries Lounge – London Heathrow T3 (LHR)
I’m going to keep this one brief: stay away. In a terminal in which your oneworld business class ticket can get you into the American Airlines, Cathay Pacific, and Qantas lounges (all superior choices), there is little need to...
Review: Pura Indah Lounge Jakarta (CGK)
The Pura Indah Business Class Lounge in Jakarta (CGK) was crowded and warm, with unusable wi-fi internet and food that looked like it had been sitting out for too long. This is a Priority Pass lounge to avoid. Seating...
Review: Premier Lounge Jakarta (CGK)
The best thing this Priority Pass lounge has going for it is the spa inside. That’s worth a visit, even if you skip the food and drink. In terms of Priority Pass lounges, this one rates above average. Dark...
Review: JAL First Class Lounge Tokyo (NRT)
The Japan Airlines First Class Lounge in Tokyo Narita (NRT) is a great business class lounge…but doesn’t cut it as a first class lounge. Even though this review is from 2016, a report from View from the Wing only...
Review: Premium Lounge Guangzhou (CAN)
The Premium Lounge in Guangzhou has great coffee. That’s enough to earn this Priority Pass lounge high marks in my book. You actually have quite a choice now of lounges in Guangzhou (CAN). Six, to be exact. In addition...
A “Real” Review of the United Polaris Lounge in SFO
My recent review of new United Polaris Lounge at SFO drew a couple critical comments that it was not “genuine” because pictures were taken prior to the public opening. I dismissed those concerns due to the enormous size of...
