At airports around the world there are first-class lounges that offer their first class passengers free world-class meals, an open bar with free unlimited drinks, free internet access, self-serve bars, free gifts, private rooms, free magazines and newspapers, and private rooms. Some first-class lounges even offers private bedrooms, full buffet, massage services, gyms, spas, and swimming pools.
The top-ten first class lounges are:
1. Singapore - Singapore Airlines - Gold Kris Lounge.
2. Hong Kong - Cathay Pacific Airlines - Blue-Chip Lounge.
3. Dubai - Emirates Airways - Elegant Lounge.
4. Abu Dubai - Etihad Airways - Premium Lounge.
5. Instanbul - Turkish Airways - Millennium Lounge.
6. London - Virgin Atlantic - Clubhouse.
7. London - British Airways - Galleries.
8. New York - Lufthansa Airlines - Premium Lounge.
9. Miami - American Airlines - Admirals Club.
10. San Francisco - United Airlines - Red Carpet Club.
There is one easy little-known trick to get access to any first class lounge at the airport for free.
Simply follow the following steps:
1) Purchase a fully refundable first-class airline ticket which can be refunded without any fees. Pick an airlines with a first-class lounge that you wish to access.
2) Go to the airport, check-in, and get your first-class boarding pass.
3) Use your first-class airline ticket to bypass security.
4) You can now use your first-class ticket to access the first-class lounge.
5) You can then cancel your ticket anytime before the flight takes off to receive a full refund credit back on to your credit card. It is recommended that you call the airlines to cancel the ticket from inside the lounge, immediately after you gain access.
You could book the actual flight that you will be taking this day in advance. It is possible to book both a first class and a coach ticket for the same person in advance as long as they are on different airlines. It would also be possible to book your coach ticket after you cancel your first-class ticket.
If you are flying out of a larger International Airport like New York, San Francisco, or Chicago O’Hare, it would be possible for someone flying domestic coach to also purchase a fully-refundable International First-Class ticket from the same airport and gain access to the International First Class lounge while they are waiting for their flight.
In some cases you might want to cancel your ticket and get your refund “before” accessing the first-class lounge, because it may be possible that airlines won’t refund all of your money if they realize that you used your ticket to access the lounge. However, even if the ticket is canceled in the system you can often use the paper ticket itself to access the lounge.
This trick would also people to purchase fully-refundable international tickets to access the duty free shops without leaving the country.
