Yeah, went into the store the other day & made some changes to accommodate using the phone as a tethered hotspot for my trip. Good-to-go. Frank

I do have Verizon so I'll be trying this technique. Thanks for the replies! Frank

Is that a different lounge or do I have the name wrong?

I'm leaving CHI on the SWC 3 this Friday (7/14) heading to LAX. I'll be dropped off at the station with a few hours to kill before boarding. I am riding Coach all the way to LAX. Somewhere on this Forum I read I can purchase a pass to the Metropolitan Lounge & hang out there rather than the...
