Thanks all of you for your input, although the lounges are a bit cloudy. We will have a suite just outside the Observation Lounge on 11, so it seems so silly to SNEAK. Nigaire--I so hope you are right. It is soooo way over the top to have to sneak when you pay so very, very much to ENJOY. I hope they change things for 2010...just a LITTLE. We will see. For now I won't cancel and I will keep my fingers crossed. We like LaVeranda as Oliver makes salt-free stuff for me, so that is not all bad, but not being able to go out for a cocktail before dinner is a little daunting.

Thanks EVERYONE for the input.
