Interestingly, ST E+ pax flying DL out of T3 presumably don't get lounge access there, due to
DL's recent rule change...
The JV between DL and VS allows DL Diamond and Plats. to access the Virgin Clubhouses when flying Y. Golds are only allowed access to the LHR Clubhouse when flying paid J on either VS or a DL flight operating out of T3 (JFK/BOS/SEA). However Golds flying Y can access Clubhouses in the US. Also note that the passenger must be flying to/from the UK on the same day.
