Easter lounge access?
Noticed BA allowed extra guests into their lounges last Easter holidays. Any sign of a repeat? Travelling tomorrow and would be good to not abandon our grown up kids in departures! |

They are grown up, certainly they can be left behind in departures!

I may be wrong but I think that the latest exceptions tended to be by status (GCH and above only, with GGL now having an automatic right to 5 guests at LHR throughout the year). And I have not seen anything advertised for this Easter (and not even sure it would work one week before either) so I wouldn't hold my breath.

For the Easter period a number of GCH have been selected and offered additional guesting privileges. Those selected will have been emailed and a note made on their booking.

Was just about to post exactly the same question as the OP but luckily I searched first. I'm flying in a party of 2 Gold and 3 Blue on Friday, so was hoping for an extension (even 1 and a half guests each would have been enough!). Out of interest, any idea how the lucky few were selected?
I'm guessing that it's not worth phoning up/asking at the lounge/etc |
From previous threads it looks like those selected are on flights due to depart at less busy times of the day. So it is route and departure time dependent.
I wouldn't bother phoning or asking at the lounge. If you have been chosen then you have been chosen and if you haven't then you haven't. |
in your position...I'd think everyone will enjoy themselves more if the adults go to the lounge, and the (grown-up) kids get slipped 20 quid to spend at a suitable airport pub...

What about the other option of you all staying together and not going to the Lounge unless the fare grants you access?
