Absolutely true. I love how great they are at remembering me. Though they did try to sell me a credit card pitch the last time I went in

Does anyone know what the music is that they play in the lounge? Is it a CD or just a radio station? Would love to listen to this upbeat Hawaiian music at home...I have always liked what they played in there.

You might also consider Jake Shimabukuro.
Plenty of examples of both on YouTube. I've heard both in the lounge.

Any news on when this lounge will reopen? Looks like UA is opening their HNL lounge. Wonder if that will have any influence w AA? Any other lounge open in 2020 at HNL? Was hoping at least a Priority Pass Lounge would be open w Hawaiian by end of year.

With AA/JAL sharing this lounge youd think it would be an easier and less costly club to reopen but what do I know.
