Airport Lounges

[Mr Tinkles]

First attempt at getting to a lounge at Suvarnbhumi Airport ended in failure

I got there a clear 3 hours before my flight anticipating a fast path through check-in, security check & immigration

Nup!

Philippines Airlines (manned by the Thais) had 1 person taking care of the on-line checked-in baggage line & 1 person for non checked-in passengers line at the 3-hr mark. Took 20 minutes to up to 3 personnel for the non checked-in passengers, & left the checked-in line at 1 person. This resulted in me taking over an hour to get to the counter. Nothing is automated

Next onto security check, not so bad, 20 minutes. Then hit immigration & a huge cue. Only 3/4 immigration officers on duty. Useless bastards. Again no automation. Got through in 40 minutes. Sheez

Had only 1/4 hour for a lounge before boarding the aircraft. Not worth it

Just plain Useless!

Bought a Priority Pass airport lounge card yesterday for my upcoming sojourn around South East Asia giving me 10 lounge entries so I will describe what they are like

It doesn't give entry to Airline lounges by the looks of it but instead independent lounges

Just somewhere to go before a flight to get away from all the peasants

Peasants is the operative term! Will never forget departing Heathrow 1 back a few years stumbling over mountains of luggage the Paki's & Indians had erected in the main departure area(s).

Looking forward to your report K. Tinkles!
