After an ordinary United domestic business class flight from SFO, I landed in YVR and headed to the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge. This was the first Air Canada lounge I’ve been to. Since I generally assume that Canada is identical to the US except that it’s colder, has more maple syrup, and politer people, I…
I’m going to go out on a limb and say that the JAL First Class Lounge at Narita is the most underrated lounge I’ve ever been to. No one ever talks about JAL generally, and this lounge never makes it onto people’s top 10 lists, but I LOVED this lounge. Now, this lounge doesn’t have private…

Honestly, unless you’re looking to steal food (easy here because there’s lots of packaged food), I would skip this lounge.

My first lounge stop at the Lima airport for my flight back to the US was the Sumaq VIP lounge, which can be accessed via Priority Pass or via status or class of service on American (as well as many other ways, but those were what was applicable to me). My flight departed at 2:35am, and…
