The IST lounge was crowded, hot and sweaty and yes the food is nice and diverse but I'm not quite sure it's living up to the hype anymore. On a previous trip, I tried the sleeping rooms downstairs and while the idea is nice, the soundproofing is terrible and they are located right next to the kitchen, making it real hard to get decent sleep. Plus transit security at IST can be a real sh*t show, significantly reducing my urge to transit there in the near future.

On the other hand, ZRH is clean, organized, efficient and the new E-gates lounges are impressive, including the kitchen work areas and extensive bar. I would agree with you 10/10 assessment. ^
I agree. I avoid the IST J lounge and much prefer the premium plaza lounges. I hate people and overcrowding. Perhaps it was a case of being overhyped but my last encounter at the IST J lounge left me with a thought of "what are people going on about" after I spent no more than 5 minutes there.

I wish Joe Bowen someday returns to play-by-play TV commentating for the Leafs, and not just on LeafsTV.

Following up to this thread...

@SparseFlyer: Were you looking for my opinion of the LX E Gates Lounge at ZRH? If so, 10/10 for a J/*G lounge! :)

@yyznomad: Actually, I'm not a huge fan of the TK IST Lounge. Granted, it's massive. But I've always found its aesthetics lacking, often quite crowded, and not great for privacy.
that's why I asked if it's your second ranked... so what are your #2 and #3 *G lounges?

Glad to hear that, though some enjoy school, others hate it. :)

I'm not nearly as well traveled as many on here (including you :D), but probably one of the LH Senator Lounges at FRA or MUC (there are so many and are so consistent, I have a hard time keeping them all straight). While LH's lounge food offerings for lunch / dinner aren't the most extensive, I love their breakfasts (especially the Bircher Müsli) and clean, airy design.

A SQ SilverKris Lounge (likely at SIN) probably rounds out the top 3. SQ has better food, but my impression (admittedly from a few years ago) is that they tend to be quite dark and foreboding.

What's your top 3?

I am pretty much hyped
Early 20s: "so excited to finish school and start working!"
Late 20s: "so excited to stop working and go back to school!"
:p

Ouch. But what's a new year without a new challenge, eh??
