Huh? Yes, a bag of chips and a room where I was hunting for a plug for my laptop like I'd hunt for an easter egg was so much fun....
It's a garbage lounge and IMO its only plus side is the fact that it isn't crowded. I wondered there out of curiosity last time I was at SEA and was almost happy to be kicked out at 5:30 pm or whatever their closing time is and headed over to the Amex Lounge, while getting denied entry to the AS lounge along the way.
It'll be disappointing if AS drops out of Priority Pass, but not surprising. They should owe loyalty first to the paying Boardroom members, and who knows the impacts of the impending AS/DL divorce (still bitter...
), In the US Priority Pass is really a way for lounges to make some cash when they don't have active flights, but clearly that doesn't work for airlines that have flights all day, hence why US dropped out after the AA merger.
