Airport facials, anyone? The 7 best luxury lounges at LAX — and how to get in

LA Times  

As Los Angeles International Airport gets a much-needed glow-up in the form of a $30-billion overhaul, there’s one area where LAX already excels: its lounges. But the rise in popularity of airline lounge memberships and credit cards has widened the appeal of — and access to — airport lounges, all of varying quality. For many fliers, a stop at a luxury lounge for a cocktail, chef-prepared meal or even a manicure has become a regular part of the air-travel experience. LAX has a handful of those lounges, and they run the gamut between being complimentary for certain credit cardholders to commanding over $1,000 for the price of admission.
