First time in a long time
 
Flying CO in early June between IAH & ANC. What can one expect on a 7 hour flight on a 757-300 traveling in Coach.

Have a lengthy pit stop at IAH, and will probably fork for day-access to the President's Club. Is there one recommended Club/Location over another?

Booked an awesome fare on a great mileage run.

Any info would be appreciated. Thanks!:)

Your profile says Aeroplan. Do you have Star Gold status with AC? If so, you can access the PC for free.

Regrettably not, would you care to be my escort? ;)

If you're familiar with IAH, any tips on which of the 4 clubs accessible for a IAH/ANC domestic flight would be appreciated.

All the CO clubs in IAH have nearly identical amenities (with the exception of showers).

The E club, however, is the newest and most spacious.

I personally prefer Term E although it can get overcrowded at peak times.

ACYYZ/SD, you traitor! :P

I've taken some photos of the IAH PC on my Facebook (which thankfully nobody asked me to delete "for security reasons")

Page 6 - 7 has photos of Terminal C South concourse and page 7 - 8 has photos of Terminal E (which is about a 10 minute walk away)

Ha Ha! At least I'm keeping it in the family (*A).

*Always wanted to go to Alaska (be there during my birthday)
*Unbeatable Fare ($213.00 a/i)
*About 6500 FF miles

3 hours south to go 7 hours north. :p

Have heard great things about Terminal E Club. Assume it's post security, not sure if I can access without an international boarding card.

Happy birthday :D:D:D:D

The C-south and E clubs are both airside. C-north should be too (alas, I didn't have time to visit it). Not sure about the other ones though.

Enjoy the free wi-fi in the PC too ^

Effecitvely, all of IAH is interconnected on the insde. You'll be able to go to any club you want with your BP.

As others have said, the PC in Term E is probably the best...it certainly is the largest one at IAH. I recommend the complimentary Bloody Marys.

As for the B757-300, try for a Y seat in rows 11 thru 16 D, E or F. I fly the 753 frequently between IAH and LAX and it appears these seats have an extra inch of legroom.
