]]> Comment on Review: Air France’s new lounge at Montreal Airport by Callum Elsdon https://www.turningleftforless.com/air-frances-new-lounge-at-montreal-airport-review/#comment-58028 Thu, 25 May 2023 20:12:02 +0000 https://www.turningleftforless.com/?p=53059#comment-58028 In reply to David Nam.

Hi David. Unfortunately, I’ve not visited the International Maple Leaf Lounge at YUL (only domestic). I’m sure you have seen their reviews already, but Prince of Travel has Air Canada lounges very well covered.
The AF Lounge at YUL is very good but I would probably use up your Maple Leaf Lounge passes instead.

]]> Comment on REVIEW: Air Canada Maple Leaf™ Lounge at Heathrow Terminal 2 by James Harper https://www.turningleftforless.com/review-air-canada-maple-leaf-lounge-heathrow-terminal-2/#comment-58026 Tue, 23 May 2023 17:51:20 +0000 https://www.turningleftforless.com/?p=54351#comment-58026 Thank you – very positive review of the AC lounge.

At the B gates, I rate it as #3 with SQ and UA equal first and which I use depends a bit on the mood I’m in and what I fancy to eat – definitely UA at breakfast time but evens after that during the rest of the day unless an SQ A380 departure is pending because then the lounge is way too full to enjoy but at other times, it’s very peaceful.

Post Covid, I don’t rate the LH lounge at all which is a shadow of it’s former self. Do&Co who were excellent as both caterers and managers of the lounge have been replaced by Sodhexo who also cater HM Prisons and you can tell!

Did you really mean to come across this way? This site is provided gratis to you and me and has been a veritable cornucopia of useful information, tips and hints since I first started visiting it. For myself, I’m immensely grateful that there is a ready source of information addressing many of my interests and it gets served up on a plate at nil cost.

And no, I have absolutely no relationship whatsoever with those who compile, write for, own or manage TLFL.

I already have access to maple leaf but have a bunch of passes expiring for this lounge only July 1st so if it’s nicer I could just burn one there before my flight in early June.
