This new annual thread has been carved out of the previous thread in an effort to reduce the number of megathreads on the AC forum. For those interested the original 2004 - 2014 thread on the topic may be found here.
That original thread started by accident but quickly became a popular place to come and discuss off topic things such as hockey, new movies, or almost anything that wouldn't fit into existing AC forum threads. More Air Canada or Aeroplan topics such as flight feedback, in-flight services issues or mileage earning/redemption are all topics that should go into existing AC forum threads so others can benefit from this information. Topics about other airline/hotel loyalty programs should be posted elsewhere on FT.
While the conversation is more relaxed as it would be in a lounge that doesn't mean however that the FT rules don't apply her as they definitely do so please refrain from controversial topics such as politics or religion, avoid profanities and treat other lounge patrons with the same respect you expect.

...I'm impressed with SAP's ability to get suspended again so quickly
(If I wasn't supposed to point out that he is suspended, I'll go even further off-topic and talk about this cool book I've started reading where a neuroscientist talks about the neuroscience of zombies)

I once took a neuroscience course in university and quickly dropped that class. I then took up flying on timbuktoo hairvines.

So I go away for a few days, come back, and SAP has gotten himself suspended again??? Is he going for the FT record? lol
Although I guess statistically since he made 361 posts in a week that's not AS bad when you look at it that way.
I'm going to finish the year at 46 unused sadly.

I just discovered that the SFO United Clubs close 75 minutes before my domestic departure. I do not know if it's the last departure.

Given the vast majority of my flights out of SFO are international, and about half this year have been out of A, it just wouldn't make sense.
One time passes would probably be cheaper, if I only entered when I had more than 30 minutes to spend there.
I think I've had one time in 2015 where I've spent more than an hour in an SFO lounge.
Just not worth it.
