Very true - it really is unacceptable when other pax decide to broadcast themselves to the world in a public v( No problem with private conversations but keep them private |:)

Have safe flights home :D

Hi, would you post a short review on the lounge please? I hope to use in on 25/5/12 with my Priority pass before getting on VS005 to MIA. I will try and pay for access to the club house, but I'm not expecting a result on that front. Many thanks, enjoy your trip.

it got worse, as i was leaving she had eastenders on and you could hear it acorss the lounge...have these people not heard of headphones.

FO46, not withstanding the above its a pretty nice lounge. lots of comfy seating ,dining tables and chairs, sofas etc .even some hanging pods.......there is a cinema roon, games room, clean loos and showers available.

full bar only champers and cocktails are charged for. beer wine spirits all free. Food wise there is a free buffet with various salads, some noodles, pastries etc you can buy more subtstantial meals. all in all its pretty good value through PP with a max stay of 3 hours but i wouldnt think they enforce it. after the CH definitely the next best thing. Oh and the PP website has some photos

I would have gone over and, as politely as I could muster, ask her to use ear phones or turn it off!

Have a good flight and a 'short' sleep before JetBlue!

I used this lounge back on Apr 28th before my trip across the pond to MIA. I thought it was Excellant, nice comfy seats, food was good, was a nice way to spend a few hours before the flight. Just wish there was something like this in MIA to use before my trip home today.

Hope your flights home were ok. No doubt you're happy to be back home and away from the UK climate!

I posted a comment about similar behaviours last year - I wouldn't use it again. Definitely not worth the money IMHO.
