Also, I heard the AMEX has "real" hot food and I was hungry so give it a try. It is very quiet today with < 10 people and food is good (in compare to what I will have at MLL) Then, to my surprise, I found 3 Air Canada employees in the lounge (1 x FA & 2 x pilots) - so does AC now ask their employee to the AMEX lounge instead of MLL Just found it was a bit funny that even AC own employee rather not go to the overcrowded MLL too.
I'm not a frequent visitor to the MLLs, but I thought AC staff were instructed to NOT visit the lounges, to keep them more available for the FFs? Well, that's what my AC pilot compadre mentioned to me...but of course, he's always kidding with me, so I never know if he's yanking my chain, or being straight-faced.
