Thanks! I snagged it, figuring that if nothing else, it might be useful at some point.

I had a free Gold from a Delta SkyClub, but never knew if i could go in without paying anything. Might be useful to get some free Wifi whilst abroad. Are they usually pretty busy?

Just signed up. In email, it says:

■Unlimited, walk-in access to any of our 1200 global business lounges and cafés, with complimentary internet and refreshments.

Where on their website can I find locations of those "business lounges and cafés"?

That seems to be a secret list...I can't find it.

I am actually sitting in one at the moment!

Even if you pay for it at full rate (a few hundred $ per year) it is excellent value. I am currently looking for a new job, and probably spend 10-15 hours a week in Regus lounges in London. (Young kids at home and lack of spare space make it impossible to get anything done there.) The best ones have plenty of seats, all have free tea and coffee, some have private 'pods' (a bit like an Emirates F suite but smaller!) which gets you a chair, desk, plug socket and some privacy, again all for free. Wireless internet always free. Some have a couple of PC's or Macs which you can use, again for free.

The only issue is that the quality of the lounges vary hugely, from non-existant (despite what they say, not all properties have a lounge) to very impressive (like a good airport lounge). Some comment from me on the main London ones here: http://www.businesstraveller.com/dis...nges-in-London

I have also used them abroad - last time I was in NYC, I was at the InterCon Times Square and (rather than pay the crazy internet fee demanded by the IC) simply wandered into the Regus in Times Square instead.
