They've cheapened out so much, it's nowhere close to what they charge. Not even half or a third the price.by 2025, everyone at lounge means they spent something with their card and hopefully lounges now improve those menu options and make it really worth 700 or 1200 they're charging from bank.
If it still feels like 2rs. menu, then its further devaluation.
All the things people will go through to use the lounge and get "free" food, even when food has been beyond disappointing for quite a while.
Many people are not frequent flyers, and those people won't be aware of the quality of food inside unless someone tells them. They are just trying to avail a benefit provided to them.All the things people will go through to use the lounge and get "free" food, even when food has been beyond disappointing for quite a while.
At this point the banks might as well offer credits to use at the airport at similar or even lower rates that the lounges charges them for each entry...
I don't think general public bother on food quality in India as long as it is not poisonous or have worm crawling.Many people are not frequent flyers, and those people won't be aware of the quality of food inside unless someone tells them. They are just trying to avail a benefit provided to them.
Well that might be true, but seeing as how many people on this very forum hanker after cards offering lounge access, I would assume "general public" includes the members here too. Every person we see standing in the line there has their own life story and circumstances. It seems unkind to me to paint them as unsophisticated while we pretend to be some sort of evolved connoisseurs.I don't think general public bother on food quality in India as long as it is not poisonous or have worm crawling.
the banks giveth and the banks taketh away. spend criteria on cards is nothing related to lounge overcrowding. this is a normal strategy by bank as seen by recent axis devaluations.So its better to keep the entry criteria a bit high. This is exactly what the banks are doing.
it's just a by-product of the actions bank have taken.So its better to keep the entry criteria a bit high.
It isn't about sophistication or being elitist, it's about how these businesses operate and many people's attitude.Well that might be true, but seeing as how many people on this very forum hanker after cards offering lounge access, I would assume "general public" includes the members here too.

Your city ??Some of the people who gain entry to the lounge (probably Rupay platinum DC) dont know how to behave in a place like lounge where some people are trying to get some rest or get some job done. They create unnecessary noise and dusturb others.
Another group are mostly college students and some from the above mentioned group who try to load their bags with maximum items they can loot from the lounge. Its ok to take 1 small bottle of softbdrink and/or 1 apple etc. These guys just empty the fruit basket into their bag.

I know a lot of you guys may call me names. But that is just to show off that they are ethical. But inside their heart they too want this only.
I dont mean to say that money/education is associated with good manners. There are soooo many exceptions. But still, there is more probability that people in good position will be well mannered at least in public
