CVG

My flight takes off at 9:30am from Cincinnati to head to Toronto Pearson for my connection. Off course I arrived way too early. No waiting for luggage check or security.  I made my poor parents get up and leave by 6am! It is the golf coach in me: If you're on time, you're late!

So I spent the time at the Gate A area CVG Lounge.  One of the perks of the Chase Sapphire Reserved card is a Priority Pass membership.  Every airport I go to on this trip has a lounge I have acces to.  This will not only save me money on coffee, beer, and food... it is also a much quieter and relaxing place to wait for your next flight.  Before I get in the peasant class cabin on the plane, I have a breif moment I can pretend to be a bit wealthy.

I only have a 2 hour layover in Toronto on my way to Tokyo Haneda.  Luckily, since I am not stopping in Canada, I do not have to go thru security or customs...nor do I have to pick up and transfer my luggage.  Saves a lot of hassle.
