With very nice food and drink served in the FCL's you need to ask yourself if you really want to get fat and potentially an alky!

It will be very hard to tear yourself away from the HON lounges if you have gone out of your way to manufacture status because one of the biggest benefits is the F&B. If HON is just a consequence of your work travel then you're far less likely to feel obliged to partake in the libations and can moderate yourself. Plus you'll have been flying F anyway to get the status. Like all airline status, its real value is when you don't fly the cabin that grants those privileges, so J and Y.

Of course, the amount of fatties I see in even the SEN lounge, obesity and alcoholism are obviously not a problem for many . And to be fair, the alcoholism is much more of a BArb induced issue than in Helga's cabins.
