Airport Lounges

Will platinum get me in to delta lounge booked delta metal aermexio?

I believe they will ask for a delta boarding pass, but I may be wrong. If you have DL miles, you can book and cancel for free after getting into the lounge.

Out of all the lounge options(priority pass, US escape, airspace, Centurion etc...) with the AMEX business card which one or two is the most worthwhile to visit I will be in EWR, Phoenix and San Diego airports in Jan

I'm flying on 767 Polaris from lax-ewr in a week and it turns out that the Polaris lounge at LAX is closed. So will I be granted entry into the regular "club" lounge instead if I show my J ticket?

There is no Polaris LAX-EWR. Polaris is international only, even if the seat is in a Polaris configuration.

Yes, since it's transcontinental you are allowed into the regular "club"

Traveling EWR-TLV on united leaving 11pm, is it woth purchasing a day pass for united lounge, and getting reimbursed by Amex $200 flight credit (i have chosen united as my airline)?

Im flying now on AA flagship first from JFK and I just want to say I was very pleasently surprised with the level of service at the lounges. I went up to the flagship lounge but as expected the woman there couldn't let me in because I'm under 21, so as anticipated she said I should go to the admirals club instead so I went in and a minute later that same woman came over to me and offered to escort me into the flagship lounge so I could get a plate of the flagship food and take it back with me to the admirals club. And then she made it clear that if I want more I should just let her know, I never would have expected such good service from AA. The best part about it was walking back in the admirals club holding a plate of amazing looking sushi and seeing the confused looks on people's faces.

Anyone know if the king david lounge in TLV is open?

[E-MAN]

Anyone know if the king david lounge in TLV is open?

Dan Lounge (one of them) was open when I was there last week but not sure about King David

[ygift]

It should be open. Everything is operating normal in the airport. I was in the Dan lounge last night.
The only problem is the Dan lounge in terminal C. For some reason that's closed (even before covid) & theres no sign untilled you get to the door so save yourself time & go directly to the one in terminal B.
With priority you can bring in guests even if they are not flying business

The staff in Dan lounge last night was quite nasty. When I asked to see the box/container of items they were very nasty & didn't want to help. I did finally get one lady to reluctantly help. In the past they were much better. I called the mashgiach & he said he would get on it today. It would be helpful for many people if more people called to complain
His number is 050-833-4435.
He was very understanding & the more calls he gets the better it will be.
BTW I've found that the hechsher on many items are better then in the king David lounge.

Thanks
Which items do you find ok? I've only looked at the cookies, cake.

[ygift]

the only stuff i was able to see was the rolls & cookies (one kind. she claimed they all come from the same place but i did not see the rest. i did see the salad bags but im not sure what the hashgacha was on it.
I spoke to the mashgiach again & he claims the salad does have the badatz. he said that he spoke to someone & hopefully the staff will cooperate more. if more people would say something it would help. I hope to write a detailed email to don lounges/hotels

While your at it maybe ask them to bring back personal size drinks. Right now they have only big plastic bottles of water and Seltzer. They even nixed the Perrier and ice. Neviot and Kinley it is. Very sad decline.

Kosher food available at IST! Good luck finding that vending machine at that huge airport.

Nice!

According to Rabbi Chitrik, besides the vending machine, there is kosher food available in the IGA Lounge, which is on the priority pass network. No advance reservation is required, just ask any waiter.

If I have a cancelled amex platinum, would it get me into a Delta lounge? Would the Delta front desk be able to see that info?

[Zevi16]
