If Red Carpet Clubs were a complimentary deal for most of us, I'd not be so ticked at deliberate packing of clubrooms to save money.
But most of us pay for these memberships with cold hard cash and/or our miles.
And for that we deserve that quiet and relaxing place to unwind that we are promised in the ads.
Most of the clubrooms don't reflect the money that the membership fees provide to their operations, IMHO. For the amount of money we pay and the numbers of members, the places should look better, have better amenities, and be operated better. IMHO.
I suspect that too little of our membership fees go toward clubroom operations and investments.
