Great game! &lt;IMG SRC="http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/thumbsup.gif"&gt;

I know #2, I am pretty sure of #7, and kinda sorta maybe possibly know #8.

Considering that as an AA EXP I have access to a number of these lounges, I guess I need to get out and travel a bit more.

If you haven't seen #6 yet, you really should. Especially #17.

I think I know

1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12, 15, 17, 20

Alas, the others escape me.

i suppose some hint (which might be wrong anyway, as i am also guessing )wouldnt harm?

plato, i think you can also guess that FL outside the security area if you had been to all other FL's (there are only 5 FL in the AA universe, 4 in USA), (well, i'm not too sure, i was there when it first opened, but never been back again)

-----

i think i know 1-6, 10, 12-15, 17, 19,20

17 and 20 are a monorail apart. and it is the "mecca" for any OW emerald member? -- 15 is also special in that it is probably the only "outdoore lounge"?

-----

terence,

can you posted a 'thumbnail'/index so that it is easier to flip your album?
it is also enjoyable for those who didn;t enter the game
(i cannot finish my own VIPOW, and i think i can guess your itin, for at least that lounge, from your postings, even if i had never been to that country -- so sort of not a fair entry)

I neither recognised the lounges nor the people on the pictures. I'm looking forward to see the "solutions". Very nice pictures. Thanks, that's really a good idea, tfung! (And I also hope you'll find time again to write trip reports + pictures in future)

I don't need a prize. I entered just because you asked, and my prize will be finding out how close my guesses were.....

Perhaps you'd consider just calling off the prize part and showing us the answers right now. Cause I'm just dyng to know.

I only recognise a couple. But when I get home I'll have a few glasses of wine to see if that helps

I've sat in some BAD lounges in Africa before but that one takes the cake. One could easily scrape off the VIP letters on the door and put "Quarantine" instead. It makes me want to start a site of www.theworldsworstairlinelounges.com

Tfung's entry would be in the top ten.

I'm pretty sure I've gotten the "bonus" picture. It's my favorite desintation in the world.

Wow, must have been a great trip...I usually havn't slept more than 4 hours in a 24 hour period on my mileage runs, so the lounges I go into I probably wouldn't recognize without that sleep deprivation state of mind..the last time I was in NRT, I went to 2 of the 3 lounges there and I didn't recognize either of them in your pictures.
