Two of the three Skyclubs offer real food before the evening flights so if you're going to hit lounges, try to find one of those two. I believe it's the one in T2 and one of the ones in T3, but i can't remember which one.

jrzyshawn, you got this? I will try to find the one in T3 with food and send you a text since I will be there before you.

Incorrecto...


Do eligible stays also advance?
Yes. Registered members will have both their eligible nights and stays credited to their 2010 nights and stay earnings. Eligible stays must have a check-in no earlier than October 1, 2009, and no later than December 31, 2009.

You lose, Dr. Jones :-:

Am loving that I have 15 stays booked during the promo period. Will only need 10 2010 SPG stays to remain Plat qualified through February 2012. :D

I didn't get the rollover reward, I did get double EQSs. Oh that is double nights not stays. Worthless to me anyways.

I made a deposit on the way to a lunch date with a colleague. It was so easy. The bank tellers were just sitting there anyway. They liked the truffles ;) According to the US Mint, another huge pile of coins is due to arrive next week! :p

I got this one, too. Completely worthless since I won't have enough nights to get anything of use and I get gold from AmEx PLT.

The old BusinessElite lounge is one of the two that serves real food. I believe the other is in T2; I have been to it before, but I am not positive which one it is.

You're going to need an armored car to move all that weight.

Are you talking about the KLM Oasis lounge at T4 ?

The Oasis lounge is outside of security. I've been able to get in with a Skyteam ticket (on SU), though they did at first try to send me to the SU contracted lounge (operated by KE).

After reading a book about government waste, I find myself now thinking in that lexicon for personal use. Having said that, high on the list of my personal unfunded mandates is a Do/Meet/Thing to be held at a destination of largest opportunity for kingalien, icurhere2, myself and any other firearm-inclined good souls to get LOTS of trigger time on some really fun hardware. We'll also need a photographer. :D

^^ Anywhere rapid firing is allowed is a good thing.

In other news, I had a gawd-awful burger. What's worse was that I ordered a double too. At least the fries were good.

The one in T3 is the old BE lounge. IIRC, it is located above the food court after you walk into the center of the terminal after clearing security. Depending on what time you arrive for your flight, you might consider clearing security at T2 and walking over using the airside connector because T3 security tends to back up in the evening.

If they are out of 'F' now, what happenes to a reservation that's waitlisted for 'R'?

I think it's out of R now and will be out of F soon. Anything already booked into R will be changed to F when the cutover takes place. I can't recall when that is supposed to happen.

I managed to take a lamp-centric photo at CDG Terminal 2D Salon L'Espace. Hopefully I will get it uploaded within the next few days. :-:
