Can't wait for this one! I'm probably going to visit the Calgary Aspire lounge in the last week of June (but the one in the Trans border terminal). Based on what I've heard, there pretty similar so I hope its good!
How's the new Calgary international terminal? They opened it in 2017 I believe and I haven't been to it yet.
@ JB -- The new Calgary international terminal is BEAUTIFUL. What a nice terminal that's also really easy to use.
@ Max J -- I figured that should be possible in theory, but do you know how to book? I'm not finding any availability online, can't search on ExpertFlyer, etc. Do you have to book by phone with Delta, or...?
When I saw the headline my first thought was that you were flying out of my home airport, YHZ. Westjet has seasonal YHZ-LGW service but on a lowly 737-700 (since the MAXs are grounded).
But I guess it a TATL flight in Westjet Plus isn't something that you would want to endure.
It should be possible for you to request a refund on the APD as you were connecting in England on a less than 24 hour connection as Gary mentions here

I'm curious what your carbon footprint is. Have you ever calculated it? Per month, year, and lifetime?. Then trips where you actually had to go somewhere vs trip for reviews?
Also vs what some people spend in traffic commuting to work since you do not.
IF you have ever posted this, please add a link.
Cheers!
FYI there are a few LGW hotels that are attached to the two terminals. From memory there is a Sofitel, a Hilton, a Premier Inn and a Yotel capsule hotel right next to Departures.
But I am sure you knew that.
@Jordan - I guess I'm gonna travel and not go to work! If my boss asks I'll say it's for reducing my carbon footprint 🙂
You would have flown right over my house about 20 mins from LGW. Had I known, I’d have waved...
