    1. @ WanderingEntrepreneur – It’s not a lounge, it’s a VIP check-in area that also offers access to an expedited security line. Flagship Check-in offers a more concierge like experience than your typical first class check-in counter.

      It also offers more privacy. It’s not uncommon to see celebrities and other high profile travelers using the Flagship Check-in area at LAX.
