AGL is a hidden gem! Way better than Plaza for getting work done.

You missed the new Encalm lounge! Opened recently, quite nice.

Which cards work for AGL? My Infinia was rejected last time.

AGL accepts Priority Pass and select Amex cards. Call ahead to confirm.

The biryani at Plaza Premium BLR is actually really good!

Early morning (5-6 AM flights) both lounges are empty. Best experience.

TFS has improved lately. Visited last week, food was better.

Anyone tried the paid day pass option? Worth it for budget travelers?

cardmaster · 2d ago

Day pass is around ₹1200-1500. Only worth it for long layovers IMO.
