I don't understand why they would move HKG to T1. I thought that it was on of BA's most profitable premium route and I feel that moving from T4 to T1 seems to be a step down for passengers. I hate T1 check-in area. It is always so crowded and then not having arrivals lounge for HKG passengers will be annoying. I know they have to pick some routes, but I thought that HKG is one of their big ones?</font>
There is a new BA check-in area at terminal 1 - past zone P in a separate hall. They will use it either for all new long-haul traffic or just premium passengers (not sure which) when it opens in september/october.
I am working at LHR at the moment and walk past it everyday - It looks fantastic!
