As long as I can remember there have been similar promotions. This is no big deal, perhaps they want to highlight the newly redone Skyclub??!! I have to say that I was there recently and I was not that impressed, no intimacy whatsoever.

I was in the LAX Skyclub outbound to SYD and on the return. Both times it didn't seem overly crowded -- there were plenty of empty seats. I did have to wait a bit for a shower each time, but not that long.
I like it, by the way, especially the shower rooms.

LAX SkyClub Faux Pas
Has anyone noticed what I consider a major design faux pas with how some chairs are setup in the form of a square in the rotonda?
If you look at them from above they look like swastikas anyone else notice this?
I swear I posted about this already but can't find it so apologies if I duplicated my own thread.

There was a bookcase in my high school that formed a swastika if turned on its side.
It was only hilarious to dump over the bookcase.
You're overthinking it waaayyyy too much

I recall seeing a post that mentioned this but [1] I am not so tall that I can see what the rotunda looks like from high above, and [2] if it really does look like this, I have no doubt there was no such intention on the part of DL.
I am not a fan of the new rotunda because of the total lack of power outlets but other than that, it looks fine to me.

oh I doubt there was intention on anyones part it's just the style of the chairs and the way they were positioned. I didn't notice it until my nephew pointed it out as we walked in
He whispered to me because he didn't want to say the word swastika out loud that they formed one.

Does it resemble this BBQ?
The chairs at the LAX SkyClub are obviously a conspiracy.
Did you know?:
9+1+1 = 11... as in "nine eleven"!
AA 11 >>> 11
UA 93 >>> 9 + 3 = 12
UA 175 >>> 1 + 7 +5 = 13
AA 77 >>> 7 + 7 = 14
11 12 13 14 .... coincidence? I think not!
US 1549 >>> 1+5+4+9 = 19 ... there were 19 hijackers
D=4 (4th letter of the alphabet)
E=5
L=12
T=20
A=1
Add these up and you get 42 which is the meaning of life according to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams.
It's Armageddon folks!
