This gives the lounges options available for BA passengers departing from LHR T3. If you flight is departing from T3 you will not have access to the T5 lounges - including Concorde Room - since you must have a same-day T5 boarding pass to get airside in T5. If your flight is from T3, then you need to use the T3 lounges, your boarding pass will not work in T5. As it happens there is a good range of lounges available in T3, details below.
For breakfast options for BA Gold / Emerald / First travellers, there is a photo guide in post 291, click here. Note the Qantas lounge only opens at 08:00 hrs. LHR Terminal 3 First Class Lounges    https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/cath...e-reviews.html LHR Terminal 3 Business Class Lounges

But we are talking about the specific sparkling wine served in the QF lounge vs the specific champagnes served in the BA and CX lounges.

If it were say Billecart Salmon or Bollinger served in CX, then yes I’d be in there in a heartbeat, but LP does not float my boat especially. The BA lounge, well they’d have to be serving La Grande Année again.

I didnt catch an answer to question 4- do you know if I can get into the CX F lounge (or part of the lounge if its not technically a separate lounge) on the arriving OW F boarding pass?
The CX showers do look lovely. You'd consider the water to be Hot ?? One of my fav showers was QR lounge at SIN. They looked really nice like these CX ones also.
Btw I just looked and apparently AA is arriving at T5 now, which makes no sense since it says their Arrivals lounge is at T3 and I believe AA web site isnt showing it as closed. It must be closed since Covid or why would all their flights land at T5. So I guess my 3rd question is irrelevant.
Is it a really bad hike from T5 to T3? Worth visiting BA arrivals at T5 before heading to T3?
Thx

If you were landing in T3, I would say read this https://www.headforpoints.com/2022/0...ge-1/#comments
Apparently the AA arrivals lounge is rather nice.
Personally, if I am arriving at T5, skip the BA one (its not great) stay landside and go to T3. Shower there (AA or CX).

Personally I much prefer a decent sparkling wine to a cheap champagne and thought this was lovely. I understand if you are in QF F Perrier-Jouët comes out from under the table for you.
