Italy - probably a new entry for Olbia. There is a lounge, it even has a BA sign on the door, however in the lounge book it says that the lounge is for Club Europe passengers on BA
charter flights only, not the new regular service to Terminal 5! Now as daft entrance rules go, that's the daftest one I've come across yet (albeit in an extensive litany), so I'll see if I can get BA management to look at it.
It is quite a good lounge, with a lot of food and drink originating from Sardinia.
