Back in January I was in the business lounge in South Korea which had food, drink, massage chairs, showers, relaxation areas, and a classical pianist. It was very different than the lounges in America, not quite up to the Virgin Clubhouse in Heathrow standard, but still very good.

Business lounges have been getting steadily worse over the last few years. I had a similar experience in the United lounge in DC a couple of months ago: even with a wifi voucher I couldn’t work out where I was meant to enter the code, but no-one was even remotely interested in helping me. I eventually got it working myself, unlike the LOT lounge in Warszawa where the staff just kept insisting that their wifi doesn’t work with Macs! The food offering has also gotten much worse too – the DC lounge didn’t even really have anything beyond basic bar snacks. And then there’s LaGuardia where you can’t even get into the lounge at all unless you have a gold card, no matter what class you’re flying.
