British Airways Club Lounge

Not bad

Decent lounge, but known for refusing access to passengers not on British Airways flights for capacity constraints, even if they should have been allowed access.

This lounge features

Food / Premium buffet

Extensive hot and cold buffet offering a variety of dishes including salads, sandwiches, hot entrees, and desserts.

QR code-based ordering system for dishes like burgers, pasta, and salads prepared fresh upon request.

Pro tips

  • Check whether your flight boards directly from the lounge

    Ask at reception before leaving for the gate. BA286 passengers have boarded directly from the lounge, but that route has not been available for the earlier A380 departure.

  • If your ticket includes First Dining, make time for a meal

    People rate the separate dining room as a good place to eat before the flight. It can save you waiting for dinner on board when you would rather get some sleep.
