Was in the C gate lounge in SEA this morning. They had fried eggs today. Nice for a breakfast sandwich

I was at the ANC lounge Thursday evening. The entire lounge is closing after this weekend for several weeks as they open the new addition and update the existing space. The temporary lounge will be on the same level, but to the south. I am guessing they will use the space where the pop-up DL lounge was located. They also indicated that it will also have the new "Atmos" name once the lounge is reopened.

Is the C-gate lounge still only open until 8pm? That was a covid holdover that's lasted way too long given flight volume increase between now and then.

I am sure there will be no showers. She did indicate that it "might" include the new "ATMOS LOUNGE" branding.

The "C" Lounge at SEA is open 5:00 AM-7:00 PM. I wish they would keep it open later. The N lounge is very run down as far as furnishings go. It seems that when seating is so worn out to be unusable it is removed with nothing to replace it. Though smaller, the "C" Lounge is very nice with a Great Staff!

I have a Lounge+ question, relating to an Admirals Club experience. Not sure if this is the right spot, but here it goes. We were transiting DFW last weekend (12/30). I have Lounge+. When we checked in at the AC lounge at DFW Terminal C, they told me the membership allowed me wife and kids under 18. Of course all the info online says its under 21. Fortunately my wife was OWE at the time and was able to use her status benefit to get our 18 y.o. into the lounge. I didn't really feel like making a deal of it after a redeye from SEA, and we were all able to gain entry.

Has there been a change in the policy to kids under 18? They said the AA rule is under 18. The AS website says under 21, and since its an AS membership I expected their rules to apply.

The age restriction appears related to lounge and not how you get into the lounge. https://www.alaskaair.com/content/ai...cies-and-rules That states AS Lounge and Lounge Plus members get into the Alaska Lounge with their spouse and children 18+.

Here it clearly states 21+ for admirals clubs https://www.alaskaair.com/content/ai...tion-and-hours
