A channel to discuss Hotel and Airline perks. This includes loyalty programs, hotel executive lounges, airline clubs, upgraded rooms and cabins
At the end of a long travel and work day…
It’s nice to check into your hotel and hear “Thanks for being an Ambassador Elite, we’ve upgraded you to the presidential suite.”
Marriott has been really good with the upgrades lately.

Delta First on the Boeing 737-800.
It was solid for it being a free upgrade and it being an older plane. Still equipped with full browsing wifi which is huge. As mentioned previously in here, it doesn't even stack up to the A321 Neo, but this was only a 2.5 hour flight.
Watched Monday night football and enjoyed a few glasses of Chardonay, and munched on some Braised Beef Short Rib
red wine demi-glace, celeriac puree, roasted carrots, cremini mushrooms. Served with mixed greens, balsamic vinaigrette.
Washed that down with a rather incredible Banana Pudding Cheesecake
Plane: 7.6
Food: 8.7
Service: 9.7

After a long week of air travel it’s a nice surprise to get these notifications. Stoked to get home to my wife and pup
TPA delta sky lounge review forthcoming
TPA delta sky lounge review forthcoming
United First on the Boeing 737 MAX 9
It’s decent, but not as good a the setup on the A321 Neo, but far better than the A319 which doesn’t even have monitors.
Some of the 737s have the updated cabins and some don’t. I guess it’s a crapshoot
Banana bread pudding was pretty good

Boston Logan International Airport Terminal A Delta Sky Club Review: 5.1
Super limited spread still had warm food and a bar - 1 TV in the entire lounge, much smaller. Definitely nowhere to take work calls, and no lap top tables for any of the seating.
Avoid term A skyclub at all costs @degen-chad - does Boston have a nice United lounge?

LGA Terminal C Delta Sky Club Review: 9.2
Its probably the size of a football field, the pictures dont capture how truly big it is. In the frame of the pic out the fogged window you can see it wraps all the way around the balcony. Great service, great food, conference call pods, sports theatre, and incredible wine selection.
I had tomato spinach frittata doused with chili crisp oiil, chicken sausage and apple cinnamon over night oats. 🤌

United Club in DIA (Denver)
This is one of the better airports for a layover as long as the weather is cooperating.
Good restaurant options and nice airline clubs.
This Club is multiple levels, wide open spaces and cozy decor. Stark contrast to the clubs at IAD which have depressing basement feel. They also have the good cookies unlike IAD. Clean bathrooms. Decent food options. Fast internet.

tell us about your lounge experience? best airlines? worst experiences? congrats on an epic fucking year
United has been rolling more of these into their fleet. Brand new for this year, the Airbus A321 Neo. Sick plane, best narrow body aircraft flying in the US right now. Nice premium cabin, wireless charging for the phone, 4k monitor, in monitor charging ports, including USB-C, decent food.
United Club lounge at Washington Dulles (IAD) in C Terminal.
Probably the worst lounge at any United hub. Feels like you are in a basement. Restrooms aren’t any nicer than the main airport restrooms. Cleaner, but not nicer.
Pulled pork tacos were ok.
Cookies not as good as Newark or Denver lounges.

United Airlines Polaris International Business Class, from Zurich to Newark. Boeing 767-300
This plane is not as nice as the 787-10 Dreamliner, but the Polaris cabin is very similar. The key in Polaris is the odd numbered seats, as they have more privacy and put you closer to the windows. 7A is usually the best. I got this seat on an upgrade so I’m not complaining.
Polaris pods come nicely stocked with the following,
-A lie flat seat that can sleep someone 6’4” comfortably.
- down pillow, gel pillow, 2 different sake 5th avenue blankets, and a mattress pad upon request.
- plush slippers and pajamas for flights over 10 hours
- Amenities kit with eye mask, earplugs, dental kit, hand lotion, deodorant, and something else I’m forgetting
- Large TV monitor with a wide selection of entertainment choices.
- Large retractable table
- Storage cabinet
- Headphones
- Several different meals and snacks
Most comfortable beds and best on the ground experience of any of the US carriers.

Hotel Kostas, St. Petersburg

Excellent breakfasts, cozy rooms, historical city center! I recommend it. (I didn’t check the gym) My first such experience in the style of @degen-chad

This is what this channel is all about. It’s less about WHERE you travel, but HOW you travel. It’s about that upgraded lifestyle.
To translate this to you DEGENs, it’s like earning travel airdrops.
You can see in the attached notification that I’ve been upgraded from a $2500 one way seat to a $9000 seat. It’s done by earning status, leveling up, and earning points, just like a crypto airdrop.
Will review the 767 Polaris cabin tomorrow on here.
