American Express Lounge Bogotá
Probably the smallest American Express Lounge in the network. Really convenient to gates but definitely better options if you have access at BOG.

Appreciate your videos.
I think you're right that the Priority Pass lounges here (Copa Club, El Dorado Lounge, and Sala VIP LATAM) all offer better alternatives, but I suppose this one still falls under the category of "better to have the option than not". Browsing through the PP page I noticed that the El Dorado Lounge actually received one of the 2018 Lounge of the Year Awards (awarded by PP itself) for whatever that is worth.

El Dorado lounge is indeed a good choice. I was there a couple years ago. The food was average, but I was impressed with the decoration and the furnishings. The gold toned art works on display were beautiful. It was like a museum.

I visited this lounge in July. Definitely the smallest lounge I have ever visited. But better than the terminal.
I was transferring off TK to Latam. Although my TK ticket was J and my Latam ticket was W and I am Star Gold I couldn't get in any other lounge.

Should have been able to get into El Dorado or Copa Club I believe with Priority Pass. I think your connection from TK would have had to been on another Star Alliance airlines to access the Avianca lounge.

Copa Club is currently closed "due to covid" per the PP website, as is the LatAm lounge, though I didn't care enough to verify it myself. I was in Bogota a couple weeks ago and walked past that Amex thing but just went to El Dorado, which for a PP lounge is pretty decent, admittedly not a high bar. I liked the actual separate bar room.

The AMEX Global Lounge collection website says there's also an American Express lounge in the Domestic part of T1, can anyone confirm this? Because I take it you cannot move in between the domestic and international part of the terminal.
The only other lounge option was going to be Avianca Lounge but it closes at 9.30 P.M. and my flight is at midnight...
