please keep in mind that the lounge is closed at night so if you are taking the flight that gets in at 11pm then you will not have lounge access....

you can pay to access the lounge or can access it if you have priority pass....on an economy ticket they will not give you access....

yes they do....infact, if i remember correctly, there is free wi-fi at the airport....

keep calling them....

its not just enough for a seat to be available, a reward seat must be available in order for you to get the seat....

if they can't sell all the seats before departure then you should get it....
