So the NZ club of course caters to basically international only, to NZ, OZ and UK. Not sure who else contracts into the lounge. So it's got to be nicer.
THe LAX lounge sucks as it's so old. One could argue that it's a domestic lounge but with the international Biz pax going to NRT, AMS, PPT and CDG is't a bit unacceptable. Further, it's the PEK Air China contract lounge as well. Maybe, they held off given the uncertainty of the LAX masterplan....
BTW, NZ use to contract the NW WC lounge before the NZ lounge openned.
I do prefer T2 over T5, since if you park in the cheap B lot, you get to the terminal first and also you always get a seat on the ride back, unlike at T5 or T6 where you'll stand all the way back....from what I hear from the WC agents, NW operations will end up in T5. Not sure about KLM or AF flights though....
The CRC at LAX is physically nicer but very crowded the dozen or times I've been in it...not sure how they'll fit us all in. Kick out CO from T6 and take over the PC???
