Make sure you get your lounge pass from the check-in agent as they can be very forgetful as they are all 3rd party.
I would advise to use TGI Fridays, as the lounge itself is nothing more than a box. Internet is free at TGI, and drink selection looks a lot better then what we saw in the lounge.
Is it just one drink if you use TGI Fridays per person? We are travelling back to the UK on Saturday and after your advice am contemplating not using the lounge. We may be a little early as I need to travel to the airport and drop off a hire car, so a few drinks may be needed. Our flight out was full in J, including Jonny Vaughan (Capital Breakfast show) and his family, so I assume that it will be equally packed on the return with the schools going back.
