The Delta Crown room at MCO is very spacious and always plenty of seats. There is also a small play area for the kids (if you have any travelling with you).

At LGW you can't beat the Virgin Clubhouse, however with the membership that you have I'm guessing this would not allow access to the club house!! I've been in one other lounge at LGW but can't remember what it was called, I think it was Servisair and it was called Alexander something or other. This was also very spacious but also extremely busy the couple of times I'd been in there. It was a help yourself bar (the best), with walkers crisps and muffins etc etc. This lounge was up on the first floor past the Virgin Clubhouse.

Any lounge is nice though just to get out of the hustle and bustle of the terminal.

You are quite right! We are not allowed to visit the Virgin Clubhouse, maybe one day when we fly first class(some hope!). Have to keep collecting the frequent flyer miles! We can get into the Servisair one though. Yes, it is nice to get out of the hustle and bustle sometimes. Our pass allows us to visit over 450 airport lounges worldwide. Delta and Servisair appear to have lounges in a large number of airports, however some lounges are 'cash' bars I believe. I just want to sit in a comfy chair[msnwink]

I can confirm the Delta Crowne lounge at MCO does now have wireless internet access - I'm using it to type this message. Well done Delta - free beer, nibbles and internet - what more could a weary traveller want

That's good news John.[clap] Do you know whether they are very strict at the Delta Crowne lounge, in allowing more than 2 guests.

A seat in first class?

Yes - well it says F class on my boarding pass but is Virgin's Club Orlando which is the best seats on the Manchester route. I'm looking forward to a good sleep hopefully.

I'm not sure - I had to have an invitation card although I did not look if it allowed guests.

You are allowed 1 guest in to the Delta Crown Room if travelling on a business ticket. However, with Priority Pass or one of the many other lounge programmes I'm not sure.

With Wexas I think I could take 2 but obviously you had to pay for them.

Matt, in that case as there will be 4 of us, we will probably opt for the Servisair lounge.[beer]

If you want details of lounges, go to prioritypass.com The Delta one in Orlando is lovely, it has peace and quiet, perfect temperature, and is both spacious and elegant - surprised it doesn't serve food really, but everything else is absolutely spot on. With prioritypass, it says only one guest and spouse £15 extra, but I haven't used my card there, just been in on 1st class flight.
Servisair in Manchester is a very small excuse for a lounge, serving nibbles and alcohol. I just like to sit in comfort away from the hustle and bustle, and relax - no cordless access last time I was there. There is uusually an airport website, and you can find details of lounges and which cards they allow on it.
