I have an 8 hour layover next week, and requested if it was possible to use the T3 hotel instead (with an F ticket). Unfortunately, they are still using the Le Meridian and Millenium. My guess is a hotel rooom is still better than the F lounge for an 8 hour stay. hopefully the inbound is early and beats the midnight rush! I havenīt used the new J lounge, but Iīm assuming a room at the Millenium would still be better.
The problem is that the connection mentioned is actually only 7:55, so won't qualify for a STPC. I don't think it would have qualified anyway, as there is an earlier connection - even though there is no availability on this flight.

Cheers,
Rick
