We turned off the light fairly early (I think it’s our age!), and slept ok - fairly hard bed. Breakfast was the typical Hampton fayre which didn’t suit Vick that much.

I was booked on the 06:00 shuttle to the airport but I woke at 03:30 so move this forward to 04:30. This should allow me to get into the Centurion Lounge when it opened at 05:00.

Well after I left my Global Entry interview at T4 I worked my way back to T8 and used the Fast Track to get through security. Found the Admiral’s Club and the Flagship Lounge. Thinking about popping out to get a Starbucks.

Woke at 05:30 just before my alarm was due to go off, having slept pretty well. The Hilton bed was very comfortable, but otherwise the Hilton wasn’t anything special.
