About to depart CPH and apparently BA has a new temporary lounge arrangement with the Aspire lounge (between A and B gates, i.e. before passport control) since this Monday.

Unfortunately this information hasn’t reached or been understood by the local staff.

As I hadn’t received any text voucher I went to the checkin desk to enquire about the current situation and was told to BA customers could now use the Danske Bank lounge.

On arrival there they explained they had received an email this Monday that BA now use the Aspire lounge and sent me there.

Aspire wasn’t aware and didn’t have BA on their list so off back to Danske Bank I went. The very helpful ladies rang back to Aspire and explained the situation and the concept of airline status, Sapphire/Emerald/Gold/Silver. After a long call the lounge dragon apparently relented and back I went.

A minute later when I got there he was still not convinced but after showing my app card and helping him pick it out on his screen I was finally let in. Hard work just to wolf down some breakfast but thankfully I was a bit early today.
