HKG: The Pier. It's out of the way compared to most of the other lounges (gate 63), but unless seriously pressed for time, I always go there. 2nd favorite is The Wing. I haven't checked The Bridge 1st class, but I was underwhelmed by Business, so I skip it completely. SIN: Singapore Airlines First or Business are nice, although I've seen the Business lounge get pretty packed. LAX Int'l, both Quantas 1st & Business are nice LAX Domestic: T4 AA Flagship I've had hit or miss luck with the Centurion lounges. Last month I was going through MIA & it was literally standing room only. They should have put a sign either at the desk or at the bottom of the elevator; no point in walking each corridor trying to find a seat. |

Friday midday in MIA and Friday afternoon in PHL probably wasn't helping either

I dont have a black card, but i cant imagine there are many of those in that lounge. Like 1 maybe. The first thing i would do with a black card is refuse to fly commercial ever again i think calling it the centurion lounge makes it aspirational for platinum card holders, not actually a lounge for centurion card holders

Favorite Airport Lounge?

Some lounges only let in plat/black cards (PHL), others let any amex holder pay $50 to get entry. Agreed, doubt there's many black card holders. Funny enough, as we were getting situated (w/ our 1 year old) a guy was walking past us in the aisle on his way to coach had his phone open to the iPay screen showing a black amex business card Forget private some fly coach We flew to FL private (not my dime) and it is just so hard to beat... Especially when you have one of these that wants to run around constantly!

The best ones are definitely the lounges that are exclusive for passengers only flying in First. For instance, the Private Room for Singapore Airlines is only for passengers flying in First, and the Lufthansa First Class Lounges are only for passengers flying in First or belong to an ultra-elite circle where you fly 600K miles in J/F every two years. |

Status is nice and I've had top tier status before as well. I absolutely dont think me with status and flying economy should be entitled to a full lounge though when ticketed first passengers dont even have room

The JAL Sakura Lounge at Narita, JPN is large and always a welcome stop before I jump on a 13 hour flight home.
