Access to AA First lounge? QF Platinum without membership card!

[drewbles]

Just an FYI, BOS doesn't have a Flagship Lounge

There are only three FL's in AA's Domestic Network. Los Angeles, Chicago and JFK.

Exactly. As the OP was asking about F lounge access in BOS, I was pointing out there isn't one.

Ah yes And having been in the BOS lounge a few weeks ago, it's a pretty miserable place (do *not* order a bloody mary at the bar either, it was horrendous! I've never seen such strange things thrown in to it including 3 olives!).

How hard is it to make a bloody mary?

Apparently it's too bloody hard.

And most weirdly, there is no FL at DFW - the airline's home base!

Especially on Sunday mornings when they are not able to serve Liquor until Noon due to Massachusetts regulation.

Other than that, I find the lounge not too bad (although it lost a lot of it's 'old world' charm a year or so ago when renovated).

There used to be one, but when international flights were moved to D maybe 10 years ago they perceived no need (competition) and the A/C absorbed the space in A.

I think that's because of their captive market at DFW. The Flagship Lounges are all in airports where they must compete.

I'll try and recall how this particular bar tender made it...

- around 10 large splashes of Worcestershire Sauce (yes, 10!)
- heaped teaspoon of Horseradish
- about 50-60ml of Lemon Juice (from a bottle)
- 3 green stuffed olives
- Tomato Juice
- Vodka
- wedges of lemon (at least 2)
- salt and pepper
- put in a shaker, shook twice, then poured into a glass

No Tabasco/Hot Sauce, just the horseradish. Never seen it in a Bloody Mary before.

Was vile. I managed 2-3 sips and left it. That was with Grey Goose too (thankfully I had my drink chits).

Visited the Flagship Lounge at LAX T4 last night.
Showed boarding pass (didnt show my card), which indicates Emerald, was let in with myself and my son.

As long as your BP says Emerald, I have found that to be enough. I've done this quite a few times, and will be doing it tomorrow night at LAX. Will let u know if I get through once again...

Cheers
