They also said they were not able to see what happened at other lounges so I guess that makes sense that I'd get a fresh charge.
I didn't really notice any improvement of the food offerings from last year when entry was free and it really didn't seem to improve the overcrowding (at least at Rio)
Great. thanks for the update. I am glad to hear they only charge for the first visit of the day. Wish they would not charge if you changed to another lounge but I understand since they can't see the charge. At least on the weekends when they open early you can have a snack & a drink and then come back later for more drinks & food without being charged again.
Did you take a guest with you? & if so did they also charge the 1k for the guest?
