Business class bag drop opening at T5
Dear All
Could someone kindly let me know when bag drop opens for J travelers at LHR T5 - 3 hours or can I check in my luggage earlier?
This is likely for most here a stupid question but I am loyal *A customer and almost never use BA - and my wife will likely like to spend more than 3 hours for shopping/ spa/ lounge
Thanks
Daniel

As Deltus says any time after 5am J F and elite paxs can drop their bags off and then be able to spend more time shopping and in the lounge, maybe get a treatement booked if there are spaces.

We have an early morning flight from T5 and staying at the Sofitel T5 the night before. At LGW you can drop your bags off the night before (up to 8pm I think). The BA Bag drop section does not mention this so does anybody know whether we can drop off bags the night before at T5?

If you're able to use the J or F check in desks, then you can use them any time that they're open on the day of your flight. If you're on the first flight of the day from an outstation, then the desks probably won't be manned until T-3hrs, but at any of the London bases where the desks are open all day, you can use them all day. This goes whether you're dropping bags or just printing a boarding pass.
