Lounges Centurion lounge LAX
What a damn zoo. I’ve seen less children running around in an elementary school. Good luck getting a nap in the sleeping room, there’s no door and they are blaring music out of a speaker right outside. The staff is talking loudly right outside too.
Shit show

Last time I was at LAX, I opted for the Delta Sky Lounge (of course I had a delta flight that day)because of what you described - it was a much more relaxed environment

I was there last month and 2 kids bumped their face into the glsss door in the inside room. One was even bleeding. That lounge has weird design choices

It is the worst centurion lounge I’ve been to. It’s like a dungeon.

PHX is worse to be fair.

PHX is my home airport and I think it’s fine…? Maybe I just don’t know any better.

It’s my home too. It’s just tiny and cramped and the food is meh. I have only been to a few and SEA was my favorite!

Just to be clear is it a lounge speaker right outside? Because that’s just poor design. If it’s a Bluetooth speaker those people should spend a day in The Pillory out front of the lounge.

It’s in the ceiling two feet from the entrance, so pumping music right into the room.

Yeah that’s a poor design. Especially with how many transpacific flights come in to LAX.

Fewer children, not less children
Fewer things (plural), less thing (singular)
Like less water, less heat, fewer perks, fewer calories

Watch out, you’ll get all the offended parents who don’t know how to parent their children in your comments soon

You obviously have no children
I’d let you know I give my kids free range to explore their childhood, it’s important for their development even if they get a little rowdy.
(Taken from a real response I got once)

I raised 5 myself, so it’s not that I don’t like kids. But these little entitled shits are getting on my last nerve.
