Just received the lounge card that comes with 2 free entries from Chase Ink. Which lounges are worthwhile using up those free passes? I'm flying LAX-YYZ-TLV on Air Canada next month. Any lounges there that are worth it? Lounges in TLV with (mehadrin) kosher food?

Nothing special. Just a small quiet room with a few computers and some drinks.
AMEX Plat. and lounge club card will get you in.

There is more than one, I can't seem to find a program that will get you in to one
Have a 13 hour overnight stopover in VKO

Is there a lounge that I can enter without a membership and pay a fee?

Thanks
