If you have an arrival flight and a departure flight on the same day you are allowed to enter the lounge more than 3 hours before the departure. I had this happen to me recently in Miami when I was flying on separate tickets. I had an arrival in Miami with American Airlines on a BA Avios ticket and departure from the same airport with Copa Airlines on a paid ticket. I knew about that 3-hour rule but I thought I would give it a try and told them I was on a layover I spent a couple of hours in the lounge then left and went to the other side for my Copa flight and I entered the lounge more than 3 hours before the Copa departure. I imagine this layover rule would work at all the other lounges too.
Couldn’t agree more. Had breakfast there and it was excellent. Definitely my fav lounge anywhere…followed by Centurion in Charlotte.
Centurions are in a different league than Maple Leaf Lounges.
