You only get in the NL lounge with BA gold. Otherwise BA give you a £5 voucher.

I agree, fantastic lounge with good views of the apron, excellent food and drink selection and great staff. Staff in Terraces were good too, but lacked the F&B of the NL lounge. I'll be sad to be no longer using it, but not prepared to pay for it when we get our lounge back.

I enquired last week and May was still forecast.
NL is very good alternative!

Great! And if it's 18th then even better as I have a weekend away planned.
Agree with the comments on the NL lounge - I love the apron views. I also love the Brewdog beers. Let's hope the new BA lounge isn't a damp squib!

I was in this lounge the first Saturday of this month and it was a total let-down. "Hot" food had been left to dry out and the sliders were replaced about 2 hours into my 2 1/2 hour visit with the same dried out burgers but new buns! Only one soup available and only enough for a single bowl, staff looking completely disinterested. To make matters worse, I had to actually pay for one of my party to access. Never again.

As noted, only Golds flying ET get access via status, Silver being given a rather desultory £5 voucher....
EDIT: Beaten to it.
