Lounge changes at London Gatwick
On Jan 15, flying back from London, we were denied access to the President's Club at LGW. Both of us are WC members and we were both Plats-flying-internationally (SkyTeam Elite Plus), and we thus had two bases for getting in the PresClub. We were told, however, that the PC had just "received notification" that the PC "was no longer going to serve NW customers," and that we should use the USAir lounge down the hall. Which we did.
Now the USAir lounge was very nice, and the person at the front desk there was even nicer. We were allowed to enter based on our WC cards. However, it being the date of the NW reorg plan and all, I'm wondering. Is something bigger than LGW access going on here? Has anything like this happened to anybody else?
