I just have carry-on but if BA requires a desk check-in I need to factor that in. Not a big deal if the desk is airside but quite a big deal if it isn't.

thanks
It's a landside check in desk. I've never seen any form of BA desk airside, the contract lounge won't be able to help and I very much doubt the contract gate staff will be able to either.

It's certainly not the norm for BA worldwide, one of those little RAK quirks.
