GOURMET17

update 3/8/2023: The Telegraph's TELEDP16 price now £24, so replaced with Gourmet Society's GOURMET17 £20 as per alternative below

also: £14.75-£16 £24 using DragonPass App via free Regus account - Login > Tools > Airport Lounges
(thanks to 0p and kenh2003 for the reminder)

update 2/3/2022: Price increased from £18 to £20.50 with code TELEDP16

With GOURMET15 finally expiring after almost 17 months, thought a current code should be posted as a new deal :)

For each visit you purchase you will be sent a single-use eCertificate that you need to print off and hand over as you enter the lounge. You can also just show your DragonPass eCertificate on either your smartphone or tablet when you enter the lounge.

    How strict are they on the duration of your visit?
    I have a 6 hour transit at LAX and the 2 lounges via Dragonpass say maximum 2 hour duration.

    • bozbargain on 12/03/2017 - 07:31

      Restrictions are set by the lounge operators, not by Dragon Pass.

      I've found it depends on the staff. Used the previous code and stayed in the KAL Lounge in LAX for 5 hours last time (even though I think the maximum was 2). Really nice lounge btw but the best part was being able to have a shower after the Syd>LAX leg.

      I would argue that access to the standard Australian Qantas Club lounges, domestically and internationally, are not worth that either.
      Continually amazed at the $60+ prices people pay on eBay/gumtree for guest passes to these places.

      • ChickenTalon on 12/03/2017 - 16:57

        Qantas international business lounges are easily worth the $60 for a long stopover. They are usually very nice.

        Agree with the local QC lounges, they aren't worth $60 entry.

        • krunchymoses on 02/09/2023 - 23:49

          Doesn't take much for me to get $60 of value in a lounge. If you like a few beers before you board, these eBay vouchers are worth your dime.

        • nigel deborah on 03/09/2023 - 15:31

          The Melbourne international business lounge is a dungeon with no windows and almost the same food/drinks offerings as domestic (maybe a 20% increase in classiness, if that)

      • Corgsta on 03/09/2023 - 10:11

        I have Gold membership with Virgin and their lounges are mediocre. The food is the main low point, for non breakfast, always a tank of some tasteless carb loaded pasta, a tank of soup and salad nobody wants to eat in winter. Having somewhere to sit and work is good though.

        • Onemoredeal on 03/03/2024 - 07:38

          Agreed. My virgin gold is coming to an end after 8 years and I won’t miss the terrible food, the best thing they serve is a chicken sandwich every now and again.

          • SimAus007 on 03/03/2024 - 10:27

            @Onemoredeal: Having Virgin Gold or Platinum is sensational if you are travelling on Qatar or Singapore Airways. Very handy for that alone. I've used it for lots of Qatar lounges.

    Since these vouchers are emailed instantly upon purchasing (and there's no need to print them afaik), and since many lounges are not worth it, I would recommend travelers to bookmark this page and simply check out the lounge first when traveling.

    • tonester on 12/03/2017 - 13:14

      +1 but technically one pays before entering the lounge to check it out :)

      • bozbargain on 12/03/2017 - 14:03
        +1

        Correct, but my experience with crappy lounges is that you can tell from reception and by seeing people walking in and out. You can also just ask at reception if they have eg showers, a bar, what's on the menu or whatever the reason may be you'd be considering to spend your $29 on. In Doha for example, there's this not so great lounge for non-business OneWorld travelers but according to Dragon Pass you can bring 2 guests. If that means complimentary access for your guests, that suddenly makes it a pretty good deal but something I would prefer to verify at reception before purchasing a pass (especially as the terms can change between when you buy and redeeem your voucher).

    • zooter on 01/09/2024 - 18:48

      what if there is a delay in the voucher being emailed?

  • D3NI3D on 12/03/2017 - 08:52

    • jakxon on 12/03/2017 - 10:26
      +2

      I am with Priority Pass with my AmEx card and I have free unlimited access to lounges in their network (so I did a little bit of a lounge hoping). The lounge offer between the two programs are almost identical in Singapore.

      Please skip Airport Wellness Oasis (T1) (unless you want a fish foot spa thingo). The SATS ones are great - I've been to a two of them when I was transiting in SG and they didn't disappoint (I really like the massage chairs and the selection of beverages and food). Plaza is good too, but I felt Plaza ones does get a bit overcrowded at times.

      • tonester on 12/03/2017 - 13:12

        +1 SATS and Plaza Premium - dnata is also good :)

      • D3NI3D on 12/03/2017 - 15:19

        Thanks mate. I got Qantas Club Vouchers for the missus and I. But oldies are coming too and i don't want them to feel left out.

      • JohnHowardsEyebrows on 13/03/2017 - 03:15

        Agree on the fish spa and the SATS being good quality, but disagree on the Plaza lounge. Also, you're missing the best lounges by far (IMO) - the Dnata lounges. The only drawback compared to the SATS lounges (IIRC) is the lack of massaging recliners, but apart from that, it has the best food, drinks on par with SATS, and very clean bathrooms.

    • Randolph Duke on 03/09/2023 - 01:23

      Used Plaza Premium recently - food was fine, having a shower was good between flights even if the shower itself was a little manky, so I’d say worth it.

  • McFly on 12/03/2017 - 10:01

    Can easily search the lounges via the app.

  • nickl1986 on 12/03/2017 - 12:14

    1) is it worth it using this deal?
    2) 4 airports come up under Thailand - anyone know which one is the RIGHT one for Bangkok?
    thanks in advance for your assistance.

      • avenasat on 12/03/2017 - 14:45

        Not intra-Asia flight per se. Rather flight back to Aus. Original transit was in Sing but they've chosen to reschedule the original flight and now via BKK and thus instead of 2hr transit changed to 7+ hrs. And necause it's only a transit was wanting to check whether this was worth it.

    • Amores on 12/03/2017 - 16:54

      Jetstar will be 99% on Don Mueng airport.

      You can get a taxi to Mochit BTS for about 150 baht each way. Or express bus for 20 baht each.

      Ton of places to visit, big shopping mall, amazing market on Saturday/Sunday. I live in Bangkok for almost 2 years.

    Priority Pass does have some very average lounges. Especially the ones at KLIA2 Malaysia.
    However if anyone with PPass is travelling internationally out of Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport, Oman Air lounge is spectacular!

    • JohnHowardsEyebrows on 13/03/2017 - 03:30

      I quite liked the small spa lounge at KLIA2…showers available, help yourself to Tiger cans, some food available, and, if you're lucky, you can use those super luxurious recliners.

        Its better than being out with the plebs. and far better than the old LCCT, but I am sure that they keep the beer only slightly cold to discourage consumption. Been there 4 dozen times, and never once had one that you could call 'cold'. Also it only has 3 bathroom/toilets, and so it is often difficult to get a toilet, and ALWAYS difficult to get a shower. I always carry chilli powder to give their food some semblance of flavour. The same co. runs the one outside of departures, and easier to get a shower there.
        The PP lounges at the main KLIA are much much better.

        • JohnHowardsEyebrows on 13/03/2017 - 14:45

          Fair enough mate, I can imagine you would get tired of it after visiting so many times!

          I've never been into the Plaza lounge at KLIA, but it definitely does look shmicko.

          Having said that, for a LCCT, KLIA2 sure is a step up from pretty much all others, and the mall and restaurants outside are probably better than in KLIA.

        • ffhound on 24/09/2022 - 13:01

          "Its better than being out with the plebs."

      How many guests can I take with me to an airport lounge?
      There is no maximum limit however you will need to ensure you have enough Visits on your membership to cover yourself and any intended Guest Visits. However please be aware that lounges operate their own policies regarding group sizes.

      https://thetelegraph.dragonpassuk.com/FAQs

      Can I book a lounge visit for my friend?
      Yes you may. However please note that when booking a lounge visit for someone else please ensure that you use their details when filling out the form. You may however use your own card to purchase visit for other people.

      Can I book visits for a group?
      You may book visits for more than one person. However please note that you need to fill in the details of each person for each voucher separately. Please note that lounges operate their own policies regarding large groups.

      • Gaz1 on 13/03/2017 - 15:59

    Wouldn't mind the hotel in the airport but spending $200 for a room for a night that I can only use for like 3.5 hours is a bit over the top. Not sure if 5 hours will be sufficient to get a cheaper hotel that is right next to the airport.

      I usually ask to have a look at the lounge first when you're there rather than prepaying. If the lounge/food looks decent then I'll buy online, of course providing its cheaper than the advertised entry price.
