Lounge meet ups app

[puppysparkes]

It looks like guesting fellow travellers into airport lounges just got simpler.

Has anyone had any first hand experiences?

'Sign up for free and meet travelers from around the world in the relaxed environment of airport lounges. Meet and mingle, upgrade your transit experience or make a kind gesture to a stranger by inviting them as your plus one'.

I can't see it on the app store.

The AFF app has a facility to locate other members if you turn on 'Opt In'

Is this a similar thing to "Planely"? That sort of died a death.
Might just be me but I don't feel unsafe guesting someone from AFF/FT or my Facebook group into a lounge.
A random via an Estonian App/Site? - Not so much

I googled planely and found a great article that echoes my thoughts and details why this app will also have a very short life.

Yep, pretty much spot on there

We were accosted by a middle aged woman who wanted to be guested into SYD Flounge.

She was quickly dispatched

She was quickly dispatched

:shock: I quickly dispatch game or even a fish - but a woman....

we must have a different definition of is dispatched in this context

If you thought the QF pub "no thongs n singlets" zero tolerance policy was tough, it's got nothing on the F Lounge approach!


edit: Join The Mile High Club with Lounger? wasn't that the "wingman" app or something similar. It conjures an image sadder than the "guys looking to pickup at a night club before Last Call" - "lonely male travellers hitting refresh on this app more and more desperately the closer it gets to boarding call... then a resigned sigh as the app is turned off and put in the pocket for a defeated trudge to the gate"
(though as a feature of an app that could hook into my FT and AFF accounts that could be handy as an easier/automated way of working the lounge guesting threads)
