I used my (new) pass twice this month, in Amsterdam and Dalaman, and both times regretted it. The food was piss poor at Schiphol and alcohol was not included at Dalaman (although to be fair, that might be for legal reasons… Just wish I had known.)
It’s definitely a Dalmaman lounge thing. BA CE use the same (only) lounge there and only one basic alcoholic drink is included. Can’t blame PP for that.
It does beggar belief that the £15 Lloyds card allows PP lounges and restaurant credits but the £54 Plat only the former.
This is a really insightful point, I didn’t know about. Thanks for this. You are saying the Lloyd’s card gives a priority pass that does include food at restaurants? This may be my way forward in Bristol where access to the escape lounge is an idea in the mind of God.
Thank you @Misty – love it! If it weren’t already crystal clear, the total inappropriateness of tracksuits for premium travel was rather rammed home by the summer unrest with tracksuits appearing to be the preferred garb of many of the rioters. Fortunately they were then obliged to get themselves some ordinary suits for their court appearances only to be put back into tracksuits for their prison sojourns. So please, tracksuits for sport, rioting or prison but not in airport lounges, premium cabins or respectable hotels.
And what is your opinion on wearing shorts in airport/airline lounges and on the plane?

Also inappropriate unless you are a child or very young adult. Their shorts also need to be tailored and not made of shiny artificial fabrics.

Would liederhosen be ok?
I am livid with Amex. The lounge access is useless in Bristol because the lounge is so over subscribed (2nd time being here and giving up trying to get in after 30 minute wait).
Saw a restaurant that advertised an £18 reduction for food with priority pass, but it turns out not THAT priority pass that I have (the priority pass guy I just spoke to over the phone says the amex membership is stripped of everything except lounge access.. which as I’ve discovered, is useless)
I’m planning to speed up hitting my 6 k figure and exit out of this.
You can see the lounges etc you can use with the priority pass using the priority pass app
I have two priority passes ( one issued via Amex and another priority pass via another company)
I have both apps on my phone and use them as needed
The PP with the amex one doesn’t have the restaurant credit but can pre book the lounge .( 4 per year )
The PP from another company allows me to use restaurant credit ..
Since the PP lounge food is usually rubbish, i use one priority pass for the restaurant credit and then go to the prebooked PP lounge with the amex PP for drinks
