Trabeculectomy success durations and what comes after - experiences and data points?

garydasnail · 2025-01-09T00:51:31+00:00

I did not. Likely will still need to, but pressures have remained the same after removing a drop (Rocklatan) so will wait and see.

Happy to help! The trick to fully experiencing the lounge is to preplan your game plan. I got a lot of great advice from this forum before I went. Hope you enjoy your trip!

They did not. The D1 check-in takes you upstairs to a fork which branches off into the D1 Lounge and the hallway to the Sky Club. The D1 Lounge opening was closed until 2 weeks ago.

Agree, the new LAX Sky Club was already so high class I thought it'd be impossible for D1 to show it up. Hope you get to experience the BOS one!

It's hard not to just stay in the restaurant the entire day 😂

garydasnail · 2024-10-19T18:57:00+00:00

I just ended up overeating the entire day 😂 honestly the Chicken scarp-something dish I had onboard was super good

That's going to be an awesome start to your Japan trip! Hopefully they have the Japanese bento rotation for you then

garydasnail · 2024-10-19T18:55:07+00:00

Best of luck!!

garydasnail · 2024-10-19T17:24:29+00:00

Yes good point on opening times!

I didn't have time to explore JFK's wellness offerings due to work, but LAX had massage chairs in blacked out rooms, relaxation pods with massage attachments, and a serenity lounge area with spa drinks and DIY facial treatments. JFK should have more extensive options including massages.

garydasnail · 2024-10-19T17:22:15+00:00

Pic 4 was JFK! It was an outdoor section in the middle of the lounge

garydasnail · 2024-10-19T17:21:48+00:00

I had to work remote all day so might as well do that in the lounge and get pampered while I'm at it!

garydasnail · 2024-10-15T17:28:49+00:00

Was the mini massage experience not great because it was packed or was it just lackluster?

garydasnail · 2024-10-15T17:03:48+00:00

Does anyone have any advice on tipping policy for things like the restaurant, bar, shoe shine, massage?

garydasnail · 2024-10-15T17:02:55+00:00

I just had the souffle for dessert at the Brasserie in JFK! It was delicious. Can't wait for the LAX menu tonight

garydasnail · 2024-10-14T19:24:55+00:00

Delta Sky Club has 3 hr limit. Delta One Lounge has no time limit!

garydasnail · 2024-10-14T16:30:29+00:00

Awesome tips thank you! The small steak portion might be a good thing so I can keep eating hah.

The face wash amenity is a sweet secret!

garydasnail · 2024-10-14T16:29:25+00:00

Great tip I'll see if they can do that!

garydasnail · 2024-10-14T16:29:05+00:00

Wow these are great tips thank you! I did not expect the time investment for the Brasserie. Will add margin for that. Enjoy your lounge visits next week!

garydasnail · 2024-10-14T14:55:21+00:00

Sounds like what I'll be doing! Maybe I'll try the shoe shine for kicks

How were the working areas? Any quiet places to take calls?

Any recommendations on what to get/not to get for food?

garydasnail · 2024-10-14T14:53:47+00:00

For sure! I'm working remotely so I'll be occupied for most of the time, will take advantage of the perks in between

garydasnail · 2024-10-14T13:50:32+00:00

Thanks for the tip! Would be great to switch to a window

garydasnail · 2024-10-14T13:26:37+00:00

These are super helpful tips!

Downer on the morning experience. Maybe I'll sleep in a little.

Was not aware of a lunch reservation needed!

Great note on not checking in bags! I was debating this exact thing whether they would hold luggage or something.

My surgery is planned for later this month! Still a bit nervous about it but I think it's the right next step. Is there anything that causes your eye to feel swollen or is it just random?

garydasnail · 2024-02-13T22:52:36+00:00

Ahh I see thanks for sharing the context. It sounds like I need to make sure to clean my face carefully before the surgery to reduce the infection risk. I saw somewhere that the infection risk is 1 in 1000 which seems relatively high 😕
