nycommutter -- GP and CP will get free access to Star Alliance lounge when travelling internationally, the 220$ markup is for anybody else who wishes to access Star Alliances lounges I guess. I don't know how that will work, does anyone knows?how will *G lounges know that you are entitled access?
Out of curiosity, does anybody knows if there are a lot of US club members who are not GP or CP? To me I don't really see how to justify paying 300$ if you are not travelling that much!
