Can someone Guest at The Dan Lounge in TLV?
« on: July 24, 2012, 08:25:38 PM »
My brother is in TLV now and wants to get guested.
They told him its NIS 80
1) is it possible to guest at the Dan Lounge for free?
2) Are any DDF members in TLV now?

Sounds like it.

I'm guessing TLV is referring to the airport and not the area

It seems from multiple reports they are very lenient with guests. I'm guessing they don't know pp only allows one.

+1  And if you only eat Mehadrin, all you've got there is some drinks (soft drinks, Prigat "juices", water), and some butter/cheese!

Unlike the rest of the world, you can't even have the fruits!!!  :P

For all PP lounges? PP from Plat holders?   Source?  I thought it's $27 per guest?

Oh and I forgot, you may find some Mevushal wine, which I guess is the only unique element in this lounge, but as said above, it's got disadvantages too..

The Te'uda is not Mehadrin, and the employees told me it's not Mehadrin (which I know doesn't really mean much).

Your'e saying that you spoke with the Mashgiach, and that he told you that the aforementioned are Mehadrin?

correct, the tuedah doesnt say mehadrin, but if you call the number - and could be things changed since april - he will tell you what is what...thats why i check every time...

also, dont ask the employees - just ask to see the bags...

as far as free guesting, i spoke with PP and they said its an amex promo...called amex and they said they couldn't find any info so i think either it doesn't exist or I'll have to squeeze more info out of PP

perhaps..but with an amex granted Priority select every guest is $27....

PP confirmed on the phone that this promo is for cards issued in the UK, Netherlands, Italy only...and no free guesting isnt allowed at Dan in TLV...

if people do it somehow...please enlighten me as I have 4 ppl I'd love to guest in...TIA
