What is the difference between Executive Club Lounge and British Airways Lounge? And for that matter what is the difference between Galleries lounge and Galleries Club?

The main issue is that it is very difficult to change branding across fleets and across all outstations in an efficient and economical way.

There will also be anomalies, particularly where rebranding and refurbishment would be pointless. Therefore, old F on soon to be retired 747s.

For the lounges, FCO stayed an Executive Club lounge years and years after this concept died (presumably for some convoluted reason - Italian lounges can be difficult to change). TXL remains unchanged as it goes when BER eventually opens. JER is an oddity, but it isn't an exclusively BA lounge (it accepts PP), but some hybrid BA branded 3rd party offering.
