Is there one? Couldn't see any reference to it anywhere.

Cheers, Howard

Howard, the forum software has a useful search function. Searching for "Cape Town lounge" yields this thread which tells you the answer.

Thanks BC.

Perhaps if I (a) applied some basic schoolboy geograhic spelling and (b) looked a little harder for the search facility, I'd save everyone a lot of time!

Semi seriously, that search facility has eluded me for a while - I'd assumed it was the same as the Active Lookup that doesn't seem to search the message forums. Now I know.

BTW, is the Newark Clubhouse worth turning up for early? Returning from there on Sunday. It's my first time to Newark. Hopefully the airport's nicer than JFK ;-)

Thanks & cheers, Howard

Thanks, Decker. Doesn't sound _too_ bad.

FWIW, about your comments about the TSA in that trip report: for quite some time I've used cable ties instead of padlocks. I regularly take satellite equipment as hold baggage, and as you can imagine I'm not over keen on letting this kind of kit going into a black hole for some guy to decide it'd look great on his ebay shop.

I specifically ask that the TSA conduct their inspection with me present. This is often met with a blank response, but when I explain it has so far always been adhered to.

I always make sure that they re-seal the hold baggage with cable ties that I supply - those that the TSA supply (if they bother) are not going to keep anyone out.

Cheers, Howard
