Airport Lounge Review: SATA Lounge, Ponta Delgada, Azores

Dan and I found ourselves flying out of Ponta Delgada airport verrrry early in the morning in September – like 7:30 a.m. flight early – on our way home from our “mini-moon” after our wedding (terribly depressing). We knew that PDL had a SATA Lounge, and we are hopeful that it would be open before our flight. And, it was! We were able to enjoy about 45 minutes in the SATA Lounge before our flight due to our Priority Pass.

Lounge Review: Blue Lounge, Lisbon, Portugal

As I mentioned in my previous post, Lisbon’s International Airport has three Priority Pass lounges!  I was lucky enough to try two of them on my recent visit, the Blue Lounge and the ANA Lounge, and I was happy with both.  This is my review of the Blue Lounge, the smaller and less exciting of the two lounges.  I reviewed ANA Lounge in my previous post!

Unlike most lounge visits, Dan and I stopped at Lisbon International’s Blue Lounge on our way into the country.  If you plan to do this, be sure to keep you boarding pass from the flight from which you departed (you need it to get in for security purposes) and keep an eye on time if you checked luggage (you do not want that to sit for long without you!).
