Centurion

A West
Did I get this right? We have a 5.5 hour layover so we might even lounge hop.

The food in the BA lounge looked decent but their drinks (especially wine) were really lacking IMO. One red, one white, and a prosecco. The first time I came in, had one drink then left and went back upstairs to Centurion.
Though I absolutely agree that the Centurion Lounge is better than the BA lounge (though the food is equal, IMO, based on my visit in early April), the issue is is that the PHL Centurion Lounge is consistently packed to the gills, particularly before the evening TATL departure bank and especially now with summer travel picking up. The last time I was there, I was ushered to a stool at the table by the buffet while I had to eat my food with T-Rex arms to avoid hitting the people to my left and right with my elbows. I didn't have this problem in the BA lounge.
