It’s always nice to have access to an amenity-filled lounge when you’re stuck at the airport.

But sometimes it can be hard to decide if shelling out $35 or more for the privilege is worth it.

3,000 lucky travelers passing through Toronto Pearson International Airport this week won’t have to weigh the options. The airport is participating in Facebook Deals and offering 1,000 daily Toronto Pearson Facebook users free access to the Plaza Premium Lounges at the airport. The 72-hour promotion lasts through February 2, 2011.

To claim your pass (worth $35) check‐in to Toronto Pearson on Facebook. If you’re among the first 1,000 to log on each day, you’ll get a pass you can show at one of the five Plaza Premium Lounges and enjoy food, beverages, showers, internet, business services, newspapers, magazines and TV.
