This is a master thread to post any lounge meet up requests / invite requests forum members might have. It'd be great if you could post your lounge guesting/request in the same format as below...
A reminder - those offering guesting are quite happy to be guested to a superior lounge!
If you have the ability to make changes to the WIKI, please do so yourself rather than replying to the thread! If you are asking to be guested, please only add to the wiki - do not post in the thread.
OFFER REQUEST MEET (i.e. will be there but can't guest) dd-MMM-yyyy / hh:mm / XXX / Terminal Lounge / FlyerTalkName
Please note the date format so as to avoid confusion
Please do not write OFFER/MEET; if you are able to guest someone in, it is implied you can also meet them without guesting them in.

Not quite the MLL, but I'm transiting ORD tomorrow and if anyone wants to be admitted to the United Club in Terminal 2 but the Air Canada gates I can guest in two people.

Back in the YYZ MLL INT'L. First time I have been here when it has not been packed and there is actually food and there are not dirty dishes everywhere. It's @ 65% capacity (guesstimate). What a difference when it's not packed.It's not noisy. I wish AC would understand this aspect of the lounge "experience". (Suggestion to AC - Cut the number of users at peak times please.).
So far, so good, a decent experience, except for Mr. Jerkface who decided to shout at his friend Hal on his phone because the connection was poor. (That's right - you shout because it will really fix that data link, you doofus.)
I may not be impressed by the 2 pasta dishes (an alfredo with large oil pools in it and a ravioli with tomato & meat sauce) which was finally replenished after the Rouge scavengers had finished poking and prodding, but, you know what? I truly believe that AC offers some of the best lounges in North America. What a difference compared to what I have experienced in the USA. Now, I know many people will compare an MLL to Asian lounges especially the gold standards in HKG and Narita, but folks we live in North America and AC has the US carriers beat hands down. I like the domestic MLLs. The alcohol selection beats many asian airlines and honestly, I don't need a meal as I'll have something waiting for me on the plane. I can't get a glass of wine in TG domestic J class lounges, but I can with AC.
I guess I have been flying at the "wrong" times . Anyway, AC is on the right track with its improvements, although I will be thrilled when we get pastrami like the KLM in AMS offers.

I won't eat these. And yes, pools of oil visible.
As long as the salads are decent and not buried in kale, I'm good to go.

Absolutely.
I know garlic is added for flavour but not before flying for 10+ hours.
It would be some much better if small signs were posted with the ingredients because it seems simpler than trying to find one of the MLL staff to confirm no garlic. Also, I get garlic in cooked foods, but not in salad or over overkill in hummus.
Anyway, if all else fails, there's.........

First time back in nearly 2 years (I was on the inaugural YYZ-HND) flight.
They still have the made to order noodle soups, right?
And yes, will pick up some Kit Kats at the duty-free.
I'll be on AC6, if anyone is else is on-board.
