    I am from the U.S. and when you were giving the size of something and the quote was " those of you from the U.S. It's the size of three AR rifle barrels " one of the best lines ever you had me. you don't over due it you just slide them in as your honest option of the feature you are doing at the time. Keep doing what you are doing you are well on your way just being your self is always the best. glad I found your channel.

    Loved the video, but here’s the update: the carbon copy is closed. So now there is only one lounge. It is crowded (5 pm on a Tuesday). I don’t see an art museum. The library only has electronic access to materials. No golfing. The slot cars are down for social distancing. The shower was good, but all of the nap rooms were taken. Great idea. Fail on execution. And I really enjoyed your video. Thanks for sharing.

    IGA Lounge (credit card or fee) the only source for ice was the bar, and the lady refused to give me cup saying she doesn't have enough for people consuming alcohol (she had a big ice machine behind the counter) strange not give me some ice in a cup !!!
    IGA Lounge, have 2 free smaller showers with some amenities but not the bathrobe, and smaller 1 cooking area.

Can I swipe my card again after 3 hours and use it? I want to stay there for atleast 8 hours. Also pls let me know if there are any other lounges in Istanbul airport accepting Priority Pass. Appreciate your help. Thanks and Cheers.

    @tonyo7324 2 года назад +1

    Nice video. Is the 2nd lounge you visited the Miles and Smiles Lounge? It's big enough and difficult to find food. Enough space especially during Covid.
    The first lounge is where everybody wants to go, try and experience. Oops it was cut short. I think you are not the guy's type and you are not aggressive enough like the other very annoying and too much bragging Vloggers.
    No problem. I have seen few videos dated 2021 and 2022. They were all walking around freely.
    We will visit that lounge on October 2022. Huge and lots of food but I don't like walking around and looking for food that I want. What will happen I'm sure is that I will visit the 2 lounges to compare and walk around the airside area.
    So I will not be spending too much time in those lounges.
    I prefer smaller and quieter lounges. My #1 favorite lounge is Mariscal Sucre International Airport in Quito, Ecuador. Food and drinks are enough before a flight, very quite and with a 180 degree view of volcanoes around the airport.
    How I wish they put those lounges in IST on the top of the airport, have a 360 degree views with planes taking off and landing and not views of the shops.
    Happy travels.
