That was quick. It only took a few days for someone to break the new coffee machine.

Has anyone been to the new Delta One lounge at LAX?
I can't seem to find any report here on flyertalk.

Delta ONE at LAX isn't really a lounge, but rather a private check-in facility for trans- and intercontinental business class passengers. While there are a few seats and refreshments, the space isn't intended to be a lounge. There's extensive discussion about it here:

Cons:
There is no office seating. I don't think I've ever been to a Sky Club that doesn't have comfortable office chairs and a 'cubicle' type environment.

They got rid of their old office seating in favor of a 'quiet room' that is right next to the bathrooms and showers. So the quiet room has constant traffic.

All of the seating that you could use to sit comfortably and break out your laptop to get ACTUAL WORK DONE(WHO CONSIDERED THE BUSINESS TRAVELERS IN THIS RENOVATION??) have no power outlets. I can get power on coach on my flight but not in the Sky Club. Are you serious?

All of these issues lead business travelers to be force to sit at the counters overlooking the planes. This is slightly alright except the counter top doesn't work well with optical mice or mice in general, there are no foot rests other than your own chair or the chair next to you, so you're left in this awkward position where you look like a stressed out monkey banging on his keyboard.

Food and beverage is the same as every other Sky Club offering. Nothing special here.

The renovation has provided for more seating but because of the above mentioned issues with the lack of charging outlets I've come here and seen the counter top area completely full.

Pros:
The employees have always been great with me.

It's going to be a while... the plan was/is to build a huge club over the connector between T2 and T3 and construction hasn't even begun on that part.

The LAX(2) SC stocks 3 current Japanese newspapers -- but no LA Times, WSJ or any English-language daily, as of January 1st.

Wassup with that??

How long would it take to walk from LAX SC to the TBIT? Is the food and beverage offering at the SC much better than the KE lounge?
