Off to Bangkok

Off to Bangkok...

Today I’m off for three days in Bangkok and Jakarta. Up first is a mid-morning American flight to Chicago, then a 7 hour layover before my Emirates First Class flight to Dubai and Bangkok. Major improvement in the Chicago T5 lounge scene as Emirates now uses the new LOT Business Lounge, a very pleasant lounge and so much better than the dumpy SAS Lounge.

First stop is the Amex Centurion Lounge in the C concourse at DIA.  I was there early enough that there was queue to enter.

Even got the coveted private suite.  lol

Great Southewst plane-spotting... as long as I don't have to fly them.

Off to my gate...

Americans state of the art First Class cabin.

With the latest in seat back video entertainment.  LOL

$24 for 90 minutes of Wi-FI?   Good luck on selling that.

On the other hand, American serves meals on DEN-ORD unlike United.

O'Hare on a nice sunny day.

And the Lake Michigan shoreline.

Nice view of downtown..

And the K Concourse of Terminal 3.
