Centurion lounge access is also fantastic and has great food if you want to pony up for one of their cards.

However, it seems that a lot of these lounges require you to have a confirmed seat on your boarding pass (standby doesn't always work, maybe others can chime in for specific lounges that let you in without an assigned seat), so just listing for a flight won't cut it. The good news is, most of the time your access is good for the day, meaning you can go into a lounge after you land, not just before. Helpful in places like LAS where you'll likely commute in a bit before the redeye departures.

It’s nice when you have a confirmed deadhead but bring a pullover because crew isn’t allowed in most of them and the crowds are insane these days.

Nobody said others can’t go to the club, but the fact they are crowded and before you spend $550 for an AMEX platinum, realize the rules of what’s going on at these lounges.

Those clubs & lounges got so crowded that nobody goes there any more.
