Maybe not low enough for you, but I think that price MAY entice some other people to pay for it. I think they were way over-priced to begin with. They probably should have gone with only wine and beer and soft drinks free and less ambitious food. They may make some of those changes now.

Thinking about it now, I have to assume they had to actually have it open before they could propose it to the various people, as to whether they would pay for their clients to use it. So it makes sense that it would take a while to get that approval.

Oh, really? I thought someone said it was full bar for free. I thought way back when it was only wine and beer for free.

"will be" is the catch. Island time perhaps.

Thanks for the report. Still seems pretty expensive to me.

Safe travels home. Hope to maybe hear about your trip at some point.

When you say "full bar buffet" are you saying it's the food bar AND the liquor bar which means hard boose is included too?

Flew home July 23rd, its a full bar with a bartender who will make your cocktails plus wine/beer/whatever. Plus the food buffet, not worth $60 but the private bathroom, and free WiFi was helpful.

Free Wi-Fi in the airport general area is adequate for me. At $60 it's not free.

I guess if you are pressed for time and getting dropped off WAY before your flight and need to eat, enjoy a beverage. At $45.00 it's worth it!! Ya' gotta kill some time, may as well be in confort!!! I've spent plenty of time in airports, this would have been real nice back then!!


Sand Gravity, got to love it!

This is rather confusing, is it $45 as was originally posted or is it $60 as people are reporting?

Still a nice perk if your flight is delayed and you decide to stay at the airport.

You think it'll stay open when flights aren't coming or going? Not a place to stay overnight.
