We(2) will be travelling to Hawaii on AC from Vancouver.
We both have a CIBC AEROGOLD card….i have black status and over 150,000 Aeroplan points.
On a “once only” basis would we be allowed to be guests of the Maple Leaf lounge in Van…..as we have a suitable lay over there?
Please reply.
There is no such thing as “once only” access if you’re not eligible 🙂
The worst business class lounge we have ever visited. We have been to Air Canada’s Vancouver business class lounge twice in two years and each time it has been a deeply disappointing experience. On the first occasion they wanted to, and did, eject us from the lounge because the connecting plane was delayed by bad weather, would arrive well after midnight and, presumably, they didn’t want to incur more staff costs. On the last occasion the food and beverage offerings were deplorable and more suited to a third world country.
The food was a disgrace. Two or three food warmers of unrecognisable soups, cheap cracker biscuits and bread with no butter.
Nothing special but nothing really to complain about other than a few splits in the rather uncomfortable faux leather seats and a few chips out of the walls. Looking a bit old and tired (not unlike the interiors of the Air Canada 777-300ER planes that flew us on both occasions.)
