Is there anyplace airside (such as a lounge) where I could leave luggage, without having to deal with it at security? The fitness center has some sort of lockers, but not sure they would be large enough for a roller bag (that is something I'll check on). I'm debating if I'll check a bag and simply carry a backpack with me, or carry on both backpack and roller.
I love to do this on a long layover. The lockers in the changing rooms are big enough to take a standard size carryon.
