2.5 hours....now, if your AA flight gets in on time. Have you seen the delays and cancellations on that flight lately?

I don't suggest visiting all the lounges. Pick two at the most. Your flight to CAN MIGHT depart from the 500 gates, which is a different terminal. You will have to take a bus there. Depending on which lounge you're at, that takes another 15-20 minutes. Spending 5-10 minutes per lounge and then walking another 5-10 minutes to visit another lounge, etc. Not worth it to me.

Indeed the supposed 2.5 hour connection could turn out to be far shorter, and some lounges are quite far from each other or your gate area. Just pick a lounge close to your departure gate as the default and see.

Had a "3h connection" in HKG in April and had wanted to use the cabana in the Wing. Ended up spending only 10min in the Cabin -- that's all the time I got as it turned out.
