Flying VS from MAN
going to MCO next year for holidays and as I've yet to fly in a 747 I am thinking of flying VS from either LGW or MAN.
I think I will be BD*G by then which count's for nothing @ LGW.
However, if I fly from MAN on VS to MCO would I get to use the BD Lounge?

....and the BD Lounge is in T3 departure lounge and you will be in T2 departure lounge. Even if they were in the same Terminal you would be unable to use the BD lounge as a BD*G when flying on Virgin Atlantic as they are not part of Star Alliance.

For info, VS74 was cancelled MCO-MAN 26 May due to 'mechanical reasons' (The MAN-MCO VS73 flight had the problems originally) now, I'm pee'd off cos I am on that flight, currently sat in the Delta Crown lounge awaiting our re-scheduled flight at 17.00 today 27 May.
VS put us up in the Hyatt at MCO, an average hotel but not much to do around here and due to time scales it wasn't really worth popping back to the attractions and we've had $55 of food & bev credits each and compo is 50k VS miles each which I reckon we'll take, thank god it's a bank holiday tomorrow or we'd be truly shafted!
