The cart of sandwiches is evidently gone, replaced by some little sliders (small burgers). I won't see it myself for a bit, as my next trip in May is via PHX-LAX-LHR in order to try F on the A380
LoL I hope I used FFP correctly, I refer to freaquent flier elite status
I can confirm BA only uses The Club lounge managed by Priority Pass most of the day. Flying BA eligible fare class or if you have sufficient FFP allows entry to this club Anytime it is open. At 15:30 everyone must leave and BA eligible fliers re-enter.
There is another change which I read on the BA website but didn't verify. There are 3-4 club lounges at PHX for One World passengers. As long as you are flying a One World affiliated airline with sufficient FFP or fare class, you may enter Any of the lounges. There are a few restrictions and I believe Only BA eligible fliers may enter The Club before 15:30 without paying $35 or other affiliation. But once it is officially a BA exclusive Club after 15:30 other eligible One World fliers can also enter.
