Wanted to follow up and see if anyone has had success using this as an arrival's lounge recently?
The policy states "Access is permitted 3 hours prior to scheduled flight departure."
However further down in the FAQ's it states :
" Who can use the lounge?
Our lounges are located after security in the departure area and are available to checked-in departing or arriving passengers (please note this excludes arriving passengers at The Club CHS and Club Aspire Heathrow Terminal 3 & 5). It doesn't matter which airline or class of ticket you've got, you're welcome to use The Club and Club Aspire lounges.
If you have a lounge access membership card, members of Priority Pass, Lounge Key and Lounge Club are accepted in all our lounges. Access is subject to availability without a reservation."
Would love some reports if anyone has any. Have a friend flying in 90 minutes after I am and was looking to hangout in the lounge do some work and wait for her.
