Maria: Welcome back, everyone. This is Maria and this is a review of two different airport lounges.
One is in San Diego called the Airspace Lounge and the second one is in Las Vegas,
Nevada, at the Club. Let's get into it. Okay, y'all, so we are at the Airspace Lounge,
over in the San Diego Airport in terminal two. This is actually my first time in a lounge.
What's great is there's a lot of snacks that are available to everybody, that you can go ahead and
grab, as well as a menu where American Express Platinum holders have $10 off. So, a $10 coupon,
but the free snacks, the things that I got were a cinnamon bun, as well as a banana nut muffin.
There were other things like chicken noodle soup, if I wanted something more hearty,
but I don't think I really want that at 6:00 a.m. With the $10 voucher, what I got is the green
machine smoothie. So, this was $6 and for the remaining $4, they gave me a water.
What I did is I actually watched over from TSA,
over to the Airspace Lounge, and it's in a hallway area between on the way to terminals three to 50,
and then you can come in. If you're a Platinum card holder, you can actually have access for
free. All you've got to do is show your Platinum card as well as a boarding pass for a same-day
boarding. So, you are going on a flight today. Right when I checked in and right when I hit
the front desk, they asked me and they offered me a complimentary coffee. So, this is awesome
if you are in a tight jam, if you're rushing and you just want to get to the airport real quick,
grab a coffee and then board your flight, this is the perfect way to do it. Plus,
Camille: Yes. Maria: At Las Vegas and
Camille's going to give us a little rundown of the food that we got for a little snack.
Camille: What up, you guys? Welcome. Today we are having chicken noodle soup,
then there's also tomato bisque. Then we also have a charcuterie board. We have a fruit cup,
and cookies, and hummus. Oh, the best part is we didn't have to pay anything because
Maria got the hookup. She has her Amex card, she gets to bring in a guest, AKA me.
So, I'm riding along and yeah. Maria: At the Club, they are individually
wrapping their plates of food. So, there's not an open buffet like we're used to. What you have to
do is there is one attendant, that you let them know what exactly on the menu that you want, and
they'll pass it over to you. Other measures that they're taking here is that there is gaps between
tables. There's a pretty big gap between the next table and they tape off seats that we are not
supposed to be sitting in for social distancing. Maria: What's cool about this one, though,
is that the restrooms are actually pretty cool. They are significantly more spacious
than in the regular terminal and there are lounge chairs right next to the windows. So, you have a
great view and it's a little bit more in a private room. This one is smaller than the
one over in San Diego and it feels a little bit more claustrophobic, so I actually prefer
the one over in San Diego compared to this. Maria: Another thing that's accessible with Amex
Platinum is the Centurion Lounge here and that's the world-renowned lounges of American Express,
but right now it's under construction because they are expanding it. They're making it better and it
will be open indefinitely. The date is indefinite. Once that opens, that's the next one that I'm
going to review over at the Las Vegas Airport. Maria: So, those are the two ones that you
have access to if you have the Amex Platinum card, as well as if you are on a Delta flight,
if you arrive or depart from a Delta flight, you also have access to the Delta lounges,
but majority of those Delta lounges are closed. Maria: This isn't Camille's first lounge
experience. So, how would you like to compare it to when you went to a lounge over in Shanghai?
Camille: So, we went into a lounge in Shanghai and that one was very,
very small, pretty outdated. So, this one I love the feel to it. It's more modern
and it's a lot more bright. Maybe it's because I was there at night.
Maria: Night time. Camille: But still, it was very small,
there was only a couple lounge chairs there. The one thing that I loved about that one versus this
one was the food. The food was amazing. I mean, I lived in Shanghai and it just brought me home.
Fried rice, noodles, chicken, it was literally like you could get full there. It wasn't
kind of just a bunch of snacks. Maria: Finger-food?
Camille: Yeah. Shout out to Maria for bringing me in here. If you want to get in, too,
like and subscribe. Maria: Overall, the win has to go to the
Airspace Lounge in the San Diego Airport. That one was just so beautiful. It was really spaced out,
it looked a lot bigger. Maybe it's about the exact same size, but I feel like the snacks were a lot
nicer. It is a menu and they'll bring it to your table. There were servers that were going around,
not really, I don't want to call them servers, but there were employees that were going around asking
if we wanted coffee, if we wanted order. Camille: Oh, that's nice.
Maria: The menu, you can get it on your phone. Overall,
it just looked like a more livelier place. Maria: If you want more videos like this
