The CAT bites teh Bullet
 

It's not about weapontry, it's about something many of you have and I finally got.

A membership in the United Airlines Red Carpet Club.

My buddy Wanderlust said joining R-C-C recently was an excellent move when his flight was cancelled otu of Denver and he had a LONG layover so he could redux ticket at the R-C-C and then relax in relative quiet.

So at LaGuardia he told me "AW Come ON Catman, do it."

AnnaS also made excellent arguments for it. So did several of you and several of my FF
friends.

So I signed up and in 6 weeks will get the card. Figure the amount will save me on frustration and doctor's bills in the long run.

Plus I have Priority Pass so everything's taken care off.

MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!!!

Welcome to the club (literally)! http://talk.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

It took me travelling over a year before I, too, bit the bullet & bought a membership. It ended up paying for itself many times over by avoiding loooong check-in line in BOS (the RCC in BOS is outside security) and made my layovers at IAD palatable for the 2 months I did it. Besides, $250 is a darn sight better than $400, use that status! http://talk.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Ah, the joys of living in Canada. AC and CP just give lounge memberships to the top two tiers of their FF programs. Maybe all you south of 49 should start lobbying for the same perks.

PS for my good bud PremEx: If you go to the LGA lounge you'll see cathair at the bar, the seats by the window to the tarmac, the coffer area, the check-in area...

As Quantium Leap says to find the CATMAN just follow the Yellow Hair road! :0

MEOW! MEOW! MEOW!!!

I didn't know they allow animals at the Lounges?!

Thanks Rudi- it seems to casual unknowing observers like myself that the Europeans get a better break on Lounge access priviledges than we Americans do! But I don't feel like an object of someones predjudice!

Well, Yaz & Eddie are like "children" so they can accompany as my family guests! http://talk.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Rudi Questions: PremEx Observes: Are you kidding!? They've allowed AuH2o in for years! http://talk.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

OMNI: I know you are all kidding but let's be NICE MICE to everyone. I have NOT met John goldwater AuH20 yet so I can't form an opinion.

But he has to be a nice guy considering he's part of the nicest bunch of people on the Internet! http://talk.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

Catman, trust me. He is the Party Animal of FlyerTalk (although Beckles just might give him a run for the money)!
