080-BLR Lounge Access - Domestic T1

[BhaiyaJi]

Crowd was much. It was almost 85% occupied

After being part of a crowd how can someone complain about the crowd?

It's not a complaint. It was FEEDBACK

080 is more premium.

 

[quino]

080 is more premium.

but the spread is bland

 

[sri_cc]

but the spread is bland

I don't think so, I've visited it multiple times and the items in both the lounges are same, and 080 has few extra items

Can confirm this. I always visit both just for fun😂 and food options are same in both. I think there is one more 080 opened newly near gate 34 35 so you can try that.. i think that one has more food options as per review.

 

[jetesh]

Both are good, almost same food options

Both are good, almost same food options

it's just that 080 is less crowded compared to the regular lounge

 

[Firewing224]

Live items are different. So are some sweets n desserts. Buffet items are same. Lesser crowd so more premiumness.

080 better with less crowd. BLR food is very pale and not good.

 

[neel]

080 has a far better breakfast

You're correct. Tata neu was being accepted and so were some other cards until a few days ago. They have reverted back to being more premium.
Rupay select definitely accepted. And any card you can't put on dreamfolks app and has lounge access is most likely accepted.

My Bob sapphire, equitas elite, amex plat travel all accepted

Tata neu no more.

Isn't tata neu infinity also rupay select? So why discrimination 🤔

I have 1 question:
Were all the cards swiped on the same POS machine?

 

[Anindya98]

Were all the cards swiped on the same POS machine?

Yes, Lounge entrance POS machines.

 

[m4b]

I can confirm for SBI Card PRIME.

PS: The food is shit (Dinner).

 

[cardio_guycardio_guy is verified member.]

Yes, Lounge entrance POS machines.

I meant, sometime they have 4-5 POS machines at the same counter. Did they use the same exact machine or different machines altogether.

Was trying to find out why three different names came:
- International Departure A
- BLR Domestic Lounge BEN
- VPS*080 Dom T

Because of different machines and some machines are specific to Banks or card networks.
90% chance the last one was a Pinelabs machine
