I am in the American Airlines Admirals Club in Terminal 3 in London Heathrow. I was rather impressed with this lounge. Previous AA lounges I have been in I have been somewhat yucky. This one is probably closer to Qantas Club lounges to which I am grateful. I have not seen any food available, but frankly that is not a major concern for me at the moment.

I was surprised at the checkin process. It was really fast. Not many people there either. More like business class checkin. The agent had some issues with my ticket as the computer was saying that a paper ticket was needed. That was fixed quickly.

The line to go through security frankly shocked me. It must have gone well over 50m, and probably closer to 100m. This line moved really fast. They did not bat an eyelid at my bag. Then again I really do not have much in it. Mostly the laptop, ipod and power cables. I soon removed the jumper and pillow from the bag until I needed to remove the laptop from the bag for security.

Now it is 7pm Chicago time, and I am waiting to go to Las Vegas. Yeah. I bet no one knew I was going there did they? Guess What! Neither did I. There has been really horrible weather all around the north east USA, and various flights have been cancelled. So they put me onto a flight to Las Vegas, and then another after that from Vegas to Tucson. It gets in rather late! ARGH!!! Still, at least I will be getting in there today.

The flight once we hit the north American continent was a bit bumpy. So much so that they came across much of the time at 32,000 feet, and had the seat belt sign on for ages.
