To underline all of these points: About 3 weeks ago I was in F from LHR. Without any clear idea of when I was going to be able to get to the airport on the day, I didn't pre-book a spa appointment. Having cleared security through the First Wing, I stopped at the spa desk en route to the CCR. They had an appointment in 15 minutes time at the B gates lounge. So I turned round immediately and went downstairst to the transit, had the appointment, and strolled back gently to the CCR for the rest of the wait. It worked perfectly (that day).
