Which kind of info?

Very expensive. Good Hechsher (don't remember which one though...) Nothing major... Some chicken and chicken noddle soup. You'll be much better off buying something from a restaurant before going to the airport.

This conversation proves that this thread should be merged with Kosher Food in Airport Lounges.

Also, UA lounge in LGA is before security. How does that make sense?

Not the only lounge before security.

What's the point? You have no idea how early to leave bc you don't know how long security will take.

Most ppl do not have priority security. You think they chose lounge location based on most users having priority security? Even so, there was a long line by the fast track security so even someone who had priority could have easily missed a flight by hanging out in a lounge before security.

Still looking for advice on this - how do you suggest going into a lounge before security and still giving yourself enough time to get to the gate?

Most people that access the Centurion already have exercise d the benefit of Global Entry, thereby giving them the ability to use the Pre check lane.

Okay so that's one lounge (in basically the whole country). There are still plenty of other lounges that are before security.

Turns out UA lounges in DEN are past security, so that's good. But they're both in Terminal B and SW flies from C. In the lounge now, we'll just give ourselves enough time to catch the train to C - much easier to estimate than having to go through security still.

Surprised there were no sodas in the lounge and alcohol cost money. Hot chocolate is Ghiradelli and OU-D.

I saw it on their site but, doesn't it contradict with
Does anyone know if the US Airways club in concourse b/c can be accessed with a first class ticket?  Or do I need Priority Pass?
So?
