MartynSinclairParticipant41. not enough departure boards in the lounge – should be plenty more so its easy to see
42. Having to schlep past loads of shops to get into a lounge
43. Sometimes having to leave a lounge after enjoying delicious food and ample scotch.. (hic hic) – with regards to (38), blame the airline for the ample supplies
44. long walks from lounge to gate; airlines should note which flights their premium passengers are using and move the aircraft nearer.. 🙂
45. Not enough arrival lounges to enjoy airline hospitality
Happy weekend all and safe travels LP

rfergusonParticipant46. When an airlines J lounge is better than it’s F one (Qatar @ DOH)
47. People that make themselves a little too relaxed – shoes off, laying down on a sofa, feet against the wall.
48. When there is no ‘proper’ coffee machine (AA everywhere in the US – just those big flasks).
49. When airlines offer tantalising lounge treats like massages and facials but unless you book six months in advance they can only fit you in for 15 minutes on the massaging chair.
50. Wifi that you have to re-log into everytime your phone/tablet is inactive for just a few minutes.

LuganoPirateParticipantWell I got back to find my Sky is not working. Disaster, so many Corries not recorded!
I noticed that today Rferguson. I was quite surprised. I thought it was an extension of the business lounge but had some free seats. Soon found out it wasn’t!
57. When someone sits in the smoking lounge for 2 hours, then has the seat next to you in the plane! Smell was awful. Luckily two other seats were unoccupied and he moved.

seasonedtravellerParticipant58 – People who think it’s acceptable to place their luggage on the seat when there is little or no room to sit.
59 – The same people who glare at you when you ask “is this chair taken”?
60 – those who think the lounge is their personal office & talk loudly into mobile phones when others are trying to work or relax
61 – People who stuff their bag full of “free” sweets or other goodies4 Apr 2014

seasonedtravellerParticipant62 – people (normally in pairs) who take over the whole corner settee area which is designed to sit, maybe, 10 people
63 – people who don’t say thanks to the cleaners/waiters – rude4 Apr 2014

FirstClassWannabeParticipant64. People who stink of B.O and sit next to you – shower, deodorant, clean clothes, what´s the problem?
65. People who haven´t brushed their teeth after a long haul and decide to breathe on you (its worse first thing in the morning when you have arrived fresh and clean at the airport for your first flight of the day!)
LP – Not much has happened apart from Peter dumped Tina and Carla is pregnant – yawn yawn

FirstClassWannabeParticipantAlmost forgot:
66 – When you go to the bar to try a JW Blue to find there is none available as MartynSinclair drank the whole bottle!!

seasonedtravellerParticipantLast week in the BA 1st lounge at LHR, I actually had a guy (British), answer his phone (wearing earphones), get up from his seat, leave the area he was seated and march up & down directly in front of me (in the quiet section of the lounge) whilst talking louder than necessary.
I motioned to him after a few minutes and said “Do you mind!” – glad to say he moved away5 Apr 2014
