The Suite lounges have improved in some ways (you can order on demand set meals for breakfast and lunch/dinner like eggs and sushi as of a few months ago in Haneda), but they’ve also taken away Dining H, their “restaurant” style service. Unfortunately I only ever take JFK - HND and that was never late enough to experience the Dining H service.
My experience at the Polaris lounge in SFO, a couple of months ago, was that the food was nothing special and the place seemed under staffed to deal with the crowds. And this was noon on a Sunday - I expect weekdays would be even busier.
But coming back to LAX, other than the Qantas lounge at TBIT, is there a dedicated lounge for 1st class passengers for *A?
