If I'm flying from ABZ on Club Europe can I access the Northern Lights lounge?

Yes, been through a couple of times now with family in tow. I was also able to guest as a gold card holder. Nice lounge and staff.

The northern lights lounge is a great improvement, but no access to BA silver...
I've just learnt about this from a colleague to who I suggested that we meet before our respective flights, to the same destination. He's BA, I’m KLM and further supports my decision to jump ship to KLM. I can’t even guest him in…… I'm not a huge spender compared to some on the forum, but so far this year they have lost out on ~£13'000 of revenue. If you add that up over a few more people in the same boat, it must be a fair amount.

My friends were in for the first time the other day. There was a bit of uncertainty as to what drinks were included. I'm sure I was told on entry that all were self-serve and complimentary but it was early morning and that wasn't my priority that day. They were charged for spirits and was asking me for clarification, but I really don't know. Does anyone know the rules?

Ahh, so the ones on the bar are fine to take but the ones on the shelf are chargeable. They felt a bit awkward.

I don't know about anyone else but would have no complaints if a new lounge never opened. Have been very happy with Northern lights and the staff and food are great.
Ok maybe silvers....
