YYZ International MLL alternatives

Hey folks,

I'm heading on a BR flight and really not wanting to go to the YYZ Intl MLL. Which other lounges can I get into as *G and Amex Plat which have a shower?

Thanks!

The only other lounge is the Plaza Premium Lounge - which BR happens to use anyway since the MLL closes after the last AC flight departs.

Most people seem to quite like it, though personally I was rathe runderwhelmed.

Thanks Jasper. How many, if any showers are there for that lounge?

IIRC there were no showers, though I've only been there once, so I may be wrong.

Curious why you don't like the Intl MLL at YYZ? It's not the LH F terminal but I find it to easily be in the top J lounges in NA...

I rather like that lounge. It gets crowded on days when Emitates sends its customers there but otherwise rather pleasant.

Meal selection is limited but fair. Can't remember showers though.

No shower for sure. More food selection than MLL, however the space is much smaller compare to MLL. Honestly just my personal opinion, I prefer MLL if there are open for BR flight, I just like a can of coke before flight and do whatever I want with my ipad. Nevertheless, Premium Lounge is also good.

I have yet to see the MLL become standing room only. If you are disappointed with AC's two hot servings (on top of their other food), I don't think you will enjoy the PPL's selection anymore. Their beer selection is slightly better, and sometimes they have a better red wine, but that's it.
