Lounge Review: No1 Lounge London Gatwick North Terminal (Priority Pass Lounge)
For our flight home from London, we booked a non-stop on Virgin Atlantic from Gatwick Airport to Orlando. After taking the Thameslink train from St. Pancras station, we arrived at the Gatwick South Terminal. Since we were departing from the North Terminal, we had to take the train between the two terminals, which only took a few extra minutes.

Here’s a breakdown of what happened:

Lounge Review: Minute Suites Charlotte Airport (Priority Pass Member)
Priority Pass is trying to expand its footprint by partnering with non-lounge members. The most common type of partnership is with airport restaurants, like Bobby Van’s in JFK airport, but there are other opportunities that Priority Pass is taking advantage of. When I was taking a morning flight from Charlotte airport, I looked to see if I could get any lounge access since I always overestimate how early I need to arrive for my flight.
There isn’t a Priority Pass lounge in Charlotte, but there is an option if you need to spend some time relaxing before your flight…
