That is a shared lounge operated by the airport.

It is called the VIP Room or something like that

Uh, yeah - that's not really a good thing when you want to sleep and some yahoos are yucking it up all night getting blasted on gin. I would go with 8A and 9A, or some other seats in the middle. Seats near the bar = :td:.

good news all:
After 4 months of contractor purgatory and a recent round of layoffs with a demotion that cemented the position as a temp job, the SO (how about we call her GRAZ, to model after my name) was told today that they're going to offer a permanent position with benefits!

Great news indeed ^

Yeah. They backed off the Y/B/M thing and also a little bit off the no free changes thing for plats on rewards (now 2 free and $50 each additional).

It has been quite the roller coaster from DL/NW elites the past couple weeks.

you see the CO.com specials this week. IAH-BOG $299.... I want. EWR-POS $189. That's cheaper than the ATL-POS deals last summer.

8A is a great seat there is a curtain right in front of you so it has more privacy .

Yes, that's the one I went to. The dragon wanted to send me down to the smaller one closer to the CO gates :rolleyes:, but I knew from FT to check that one out. It was very nice, don't get me wrong, but with respect to 'utility' I meant as an originating passenger. If I was connecting I would have loved it instead of waiting among the gates (and being able to take a shower for sure), but going to the airport and then hanging out there before my flight left, I didn't get much out of it. *shrugs*

I did like watching the planes take off and land, that was very nice, but my wife, well, lets say her dad never took her to LGA when she was a kid to watch them land to know what she was missing.

I guess you're just not as much of a lounge wh!ore as me.

Does Copa offer weekend specials? I'd love to see some Sat-Mon MIA/MCO-CTG (or other sundry C./S. America destinations) fares on the cheap.

AA, DL, and now UA have dropped fares to JAC...I can get $227 all in for a Thur-Sun ski trip. After a successful VT skiing weekend (all bones, extremities, and relationship intact ^ ) I'm itching to book something involving miles and points (and powder instead of ice.)

Come on CO, match!

That pretty much sums it up.

Still not enough to get me to fly US.

In the F section, they bring you a menu, and it's table service.

I vaguely remember seeing additional food options in the F section, but I was in the J section so I didn't pay it much attention.

:mad: :mad: :mad: I was greeted by a lady offering me a beverage. When she came with the beverage, she told me to enjoy the buffet at the business section :mad: :mad: :mad:

But then again, I was flying SQ F and I wasn't sure if there were any TG F flights going out in the afternoon. Still, a big :rolleyes: Unless I went to a different lounge....there is only one, right?
