Don’t know if I have ever seen T3. I really just hate the way they herd you to the main concourse to wait for the connection, the security upon arrival, and the waiting for gate assignments and the subsequent rush to get to the gate in some remote concourse via train. After a long TATL I just want to sit down in peace and enjoy a coffee and some bite to eat while waiting for my connection.

For sure I have never seen the Concorde Room from the inside. I have mostly been flying revenue Premium Economy on BA in recent years, both to get AS EQMs and because it is a reasonable product when business class is unavailable at acceptable cost on any suitable carrier. The BA business class lounges and the PP Lounge seem to be a zoo every time I go there.
