Review: Aerolineas Argentinas Lounge Buenos Aires (EZE)
This is a huge lounge, but also an underwhelming one. While you’ll have no trouble finding a seat (or dozens of seats), you will be very disappointed if you arrive hungry. You walk in and see a huge seating...
Review: American Express Centurion Lounge Buenos Aires (EZE)
I found the American Express Centurion Lounge to be the best lounge in Buenos Aires’ Ministro Pistarini International Airport. It’s worth a visit. Arriving at 8am, I had the lounge to myself for 30 minutes. Compare that to the crowded...
Review: Star Alliance Lounge Buenos Aires (EZE)
With an extended layover between flights, I had time to go lounge hopping in Buenos Aires. My first stop: the Star Alliance Lounge, now part of the Priority Pass network. Upon landing I followed the signs for “international transit”,...
Review: Aeromexico Lounge Cancún (CUN)
My connection turned out so quick that I had plenty of time to relax prior to my Aerolineas Argentinas flight to Buenos Aires. The airline uses Aeromexico’s Salon Premier in Terminal 2. The lounge is small, but access is limited...
Review: Saudia Business Class Lounge Riyadh (RUH)
Earlier today I reviewed the Saudia First Class Lounge in Riyadh (RUH). During my long layover, I also had time to check out the business class side of the Alfurshan lounge. The lounge is subdivided into the following sections: Surprisingly, the business...
Review: Saudia First Class Lounge Riyadh (RUH)
The first class section of the Saudia Alfurshan Lounge in Riyadh (RUH) proved to be a very comfortable place to spend a 7.5hour layover between flights. To reach the lounge, simply follow the signs for “Alfurshan Lounge”. You will...
Review: SkyTeam Lounge Dubai (DXB)
We spent about 90 minutes in the SkyTeam lounge in Dubai prior to our Saudia First Class flight to Riyadh. The lounge was comfortable, wi-fi fast, and food decent. It’s also the best Priority Pass Lounge in Dubai (DXB)....
Review: Uzbekistan Airways Business Lounge Tashkent (TAS)
While not Lufthansa’s First Class Terminal in Frankfurt, the CIP Hall at Tashkent Airport offers an impressive lounge service for premium class passengers and those willing to pay for it. This service is free for business class passengers on...
Review: Airspace Lounge New York JFK (Terminal 5)
While it’s great to have a lounge, about the only good thing I can say about the Airspace Lounge in JFK’s T5 is that the shower is nice. Well, maybe that’s not fair. The tap water is free. I...
Review: Saudia Lounge Jeddah (JED)
While expectations were low, especially after the poor service on the Colombo to Jeddah flight, the Saudia Lounge at Jeddah was objectively not bad. In fact, I’d even call it a good lounge. 1.) Plenty of seating We arrived...

The Royal Air Maroc Lounge in Casablanca has been remodeled and is now called The Casablanca Lounge. We spent about two hours in the lounge prior to our RAM flight to Doha. The RAM lounge is modern and clean...

Review: Araliya Lounge Colombo (CMB)
With an early arrival at the airport before our flight to Doha, we had plenty of time in the Araliya Lounge in Colombo. I prefer the SriLankan Serindib lounge I reviewed earlier today due to faster internet speeds and...
Review: SriLankan Serindib Lounge Colombo (CMB)
SriLankan’s flagship Serindib lounge in Colombo is the best lounge at Bandaranaike International Airport and worth a visit if you’re hungry before your flight or need reliable wi-fi. I stepped in just to check it out, but wish I would...
VIP Treatment in China Eastern VIP Lounge Shanghai Airport
Sometimes an ordinary lounge visit becomes a little bit extraordinary thanks to unexpectedly excellent service…even if such service is part of concerted scheme to deceive. I already wrote about what happened here. It was simply an amazing experience in...
Charming Concept: SAS Café Lounge
SAS offers a charming lounge concept at five smaller airports: lounge cafés. SAS bases operations out of three Scandinavian hubs: Copenhagen, Oslo, and Stockholm, but serves 40 Scandinavian destinations. Some of these cities are too small to support a full lounge but to small or competitive...
Review: SAS Gold Lounge Oslo
After three hours in the SAS Gold Lounge in Stockholm and the most scenic flight of my life, we faced a 7hr layover in Oslo. I wanted to go into Oslo, but an afternoon storm rolled through so we remained...

I spent the night in Air Serbia’s 24/7 Premium Lounge in Belgrade (BEG), allowing for plenty of time to explore it. It’s a great lounge with many first class elements. After a rough opening act, I settled down to...
