Nomad you lead a gifted life. I go through that lounge every week and I have never seen soup. Maybe the neighbourhood is getting better. Ill look for the soup this week!!

They had soup and tortilla wrap sandwiches when I was there on Friday. It didn't come out until 5 PM, though.

I have always enjoyed potato leek soup as a substitution for clam chowder should it not be available (not refering to soup offerings at T2 MLL BTW). :) Speaking of clam chowder, hope you got the opportunity to sample them in BOS nomad. Hope you also enjoy your stay there.

Thanks, Rejuv!
Actually I've been to BOS several times in the past and have had the clam chowder... this time though I flew into BOS and drove to Nashua, NH... most activities this weekend will occur in NH!

Where? Is that only for their time-limited "dinner" service?

When entering the lounge, walk through the left side of the desk at the main foyer area and the ice cream cart will be right there.
I was there during lunch time hours. I can't comment about dinner but my guess is that there is ice cream during dinner hours as well.

Devil's Chocolate... the only other flavo(u)r I've seen so far is the Mango one.. are there others offered in the MLL's?

I still like the YVR domestic lounge as the best lounge in the entire AC MLL system, for the reasons mentioned in the above posts. I particularly like the fact that it has 2 levels, and the business section downstairs (next to the reception desk) is seldom as crowded as the second level - so one can do one's work in an environment that is relatively quiet (especially compared to the second floor).


PS- I am also particular to that lounge, because it was one of the main CP Empress lounges (and I was a loyal CP passenger, before it was taken over by AC). Personally, I can not (with the possible exception of the SK/AC lounge at LHR) recollect which lounge elsewhere in the MLL system would compare favourably with the domestic YVR MLL lounge.

I like the YVR one too, but have to say the YYT lounge has some charm. The new MLL at YOW is pretty decent too.

Back when I had *G/Elite on AC and travelling to Japan, I would use the International MLL in YVR. Lovely place to hang out and have soup etc before a long long flight on the plane! :D

Sanosuke!

Reviving an old thread. Have a long layover at YYZ next week. Have either a choice of the domestic or transborder MLL. Which one is better?

Braindrain Nov 9, 2009 6:05 pm

6 and half-dozen. The transborder does look funkier.

If you have a transborder trip, I might take the transborder MLL just to get the clearance out of the way.

YVR Dom? can't believe so many people like it.

I am definitely not a fan. I can't wait for the renos to be done!!!!

I like YVR USA and YYZ USA. The ladies in the YYC lounge are AMAZING when it comes to flight changes/delays/etc.
