As an OWE you will have access to the First class lounge at LHR (but NOT the Concorde Room). However there is a strict guest policy of just one person, also applicable to children over 2 years old. Therefore, you can only guest one of your children to the BA First lounge (Galleries First) at LHR.

If your children are flying in Club Europe, then all of you can go to the business class lounge, called Galleries Club.

Thanks for the quick replies. Yes, all three of us (my kids 4 and 7 and me) are flying Club Europe from LHR-BCN. While it is a 2nd part of a ticket (DUB-LHR-BCN) that is all Club Europe, the first part (DUB-LHR) is the day before - meaning we are spending 24 hours in London.

I am assuming based on answers that Club Galleries is available for all of us.

For the Five-Star questions, it's not about money to burn per se; rather, it's being in unfamiliar territory having to connect differently than usual. I will take all the advice below and not pay $475 USD for the luxury.

I will jump back in this thread next week and share how it all went.
