The BA Lounge has no F, and in my experience two weeks ago on the 2am flight it was pretty busy, not much room at all to spread out. Nice enough, but hardly a place I'd like to endure for long.

A far cry from the arrival 36 hours earlier with a private airside transfer (didn't even have to walk down the door 1a jetway with the other hoi polloi in F) to the Al Majalis private immigration, and private helicopter transfer to the Burj.
