TIL the hard way that airport lounges share network bandwidth with everyone else
Honestly, I was stuck in the Delta Sky Club at JFK on a layover last Tuesday and tried to upload a 2GB config backup for a client. The connection crawled at like 3 Mbps because every business traveler was streaming video. I ended up paying for a day pass to the American Express lounge instead, those dedicated enterprise lines are way faster. Has anyone else hit this bottleneck during peak travel times?

Tethering my phone to my laptop got me through a crowded lounge once.

Tethering saved my butt in a Denver airport bar, 10/10.
