On July 25, 2013, Marc and I flew from Oslo, Norway to Copenhagen, Denmark for the final leg of our summer vacation to Scandinavia and the Baltic States this year. Since we had to leave the hotel so early, even earlier than the time the restaurant in our wondeful hotel, the Park Inn by Radisson, opened for what was our daily breakfast buffet, we decided to pass by the SAS/Star Alliance lounge to get something too eat. We knew that the flight from Oslo to Copenhagen was going to be less than an hour and the chances of being served any food on board besides the complimentary drink of soda, juice, or water was nil. So, we ate what we would later discover was going to be a staple among SAS lounges: ham, liver patee, cheeses, pastries, wine, soda in cans and bottles, and chips. We had visited all the SAS lounges, in all three Scandinavian countries and I must say the one in Stockholm was the biggest and the nicest. Anyway, like I mentioned earlier, they all looked very similar and so when it came down to comparing all three, I simply preferred the one with the biggest in square footage and the one with the widest food selection.

Not that I disliked any of them, I found them very pretty and much nicer than the lounges I have been to in the US, Canada, and Asia. I simply couldn't help notice the likeness. Not only did the lounges looked the same, they also served nearly the same type of food. There were different kinds of ham, liver patee, cheese, red and white wine, soda in cans and bottles, still and sparkling water, and of course, free wi-fi.

When it comes to choosing my favorite, it was Stockholm's for me. I simply chose the one with the biggest square footage and the widest selection of food.

I love airplanes and so when Marc and I passed by this airplane which doubled as a slide, I had to take a picture.
