Any time I've done the check in upon arrival to the airport I've been able to go in essentially immediately.

The $100 restaurant credit, Lululemon credit, saks credit, Walmart plus and streaming credits more than pay for the card. I'll let it lapse when I start my new job and won't be traveling anymore though, because I do quite like having the centurion lounge when abroad.

Saks credit is gone after their bankruptcy

Right I think it ended this past cycle iirc but in the past it was nice. I believe that's why they brought in Lululemon. Either way, point still stands, I make the most of it.

Flying United to Orlando next Monday. I assume it will be terminal D. Any recent experiences and what I will be facing. Going to park remote and take shuttle to terminal.


A bigger **** show coming back from MCO than leaving from IAH. Families with Disney kids make Orlando a mess. I fly into Tampa any time I go to that part of Florida, if I'm going somewhere between the two cities. I only fly out of MCO, if I absolutely have to.

Thanks for the heads up. Unfortunately, we are committed
The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But, it's still on the list.

you guys are some drama queens. MCO isn't that bad. I'll take Orlando over MIA any day.

Its a fine airport, TSA can get backed up so give a few extra minutes but the rest isn't a big deal

It's the saddest place on Earth (except for the parents who get to go home and stop hemorrhaging money to the mouse).

Itll be nice until those "leather" chairs start peeling by end of year. Haha. But I will say the United Clubs in EWR are very nicely laid out now and Denver is next level. So I am
hopeful for this one. At least take some pressure off the other ones.

Ill be glad to had a bad buffet plate over the pre-made "sandwiches" and other crap from the express or whatever they call the not-lounge lounge on my connecting flights to bumfric towns.
I just home they do better than most other lounges (AA and United) and have a actual soft drink dispenser instead of having to go to the bar just for a cup of coke or if stocked dr pepper

I go in there, grab a coffee, two sodas, and 2-3 bags of chips. I'm good with that since they have Zapp's!

Yeah a few bags of voodoo chips and the grapes and cheese cup is money in the Club Fly.

Was in PHL on Thursday and there were like 60+ just waiting outside to get in. I hate how liberally they have given out these cards. I'm dropping my AMEX Plat. when my renewal comes up. I'm flying out of A and C 95% of the time, and I'm not going to D just to sit in the lounge. Modelo is still free in the United lounge, so I'm good with just keeping that card.

Saw something recently I can't recall where that a bunch of new gates are opening soon? Which terminal? I assume this is just one phase of the construction.

I did as well. With the amount of fees that card charges, and standing in line waiting to get in watching a family of 6 fumble through the buffet line (and I don't even get a guest anymore), eff off.

Interesting, the only one I've ever used is at LGA and never had an issue getting in. My wife used it two weeks ago and they let her bring a guest.

Just saw a video tour, looks really nice, in line with the updated DIA lounges. However, I don't know who thought it was a great idea to throw an outdoor terrace into the plan.

The Delta lounge at LAX has an outside terrace and it was actually pretty nice.

There's something different about LA and Houston but i cant quite out my finger on it.

Exactly. And DIA's small public one is nice too. But there's just something unique about one at IAH

For five months a year it can be serviceable!

LGA is still my favorite I've been in.

The whole LGA redo of that Terminal is really nice
