BA lounge at NCE
Apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere but my search did not reveal anything
What lounge does BA use at NCE for business class passengers NCE-LHR-SFO?
Also, BA changed my times from a 2 1/2 hour layover at LHR to just a 1 hour 20 minutes. Is this doable? Do I have to go through security/immigration (flight arrive and departs from T5)?
TIA

Don't know about the lounge. Regarding your connection, 80 minutes is plenty for a T5-T5 connection. You will have to re-clear security but not immigration, provided you are on one ticket. Once you get off the aircraft, follow signs for Flight Connections, then Fast Track.

As you arrive in the non schengen departure area the lounge access is on the far corner on the right, either through a lift or a staircase. Not luxurious but quite a please lounge nevertheless.
80 minutes should be good provided no delay on the NCE-LHR and presumably you are protected by being on a single ticket?

For future reference, the oneworld website has a ‘lounge finder’ which will show you every lounge you can use when flying on any oneworld carrier. All member airlines use it and it’s very helpful to answer these kinds of questions.

The accumulated knowledge and corrections have been applied, where identified, in the FT lounges guides, which are to be found in the Dashboard.
