i have 8 hr stop over in Amsterdam and i am flying business do i have access to any lounges in Amsterdam or ....

Just call KLM on your behalf and pleaded for you to get lounge access, but they flatly denied except for $150pp. If you would like, I can arrange it for $100pp

Yes. No (YMMV).

Not a bad move, get them to say no ounce, twice, and then give them an excuse to say yes. ;)

Dan lounge is way too packed with deal seekers, too crowded for me...

free drinks?

Would rather spend my time at the coffee shop outside, almost no people, and spend the $10-15.

btw, entry to Dan cost card holders, depends which card you hold.

I think its great that some ppl here can spend 15$ on free soda, maybe we can get them to donate some $$ to those of us that can't  :)
