Oh yes there is. And it's also true for Mayonnaise. I'd forbid Hellman's from even using the word...

you used to be able to, but they changed it in recent year,
on BA’s website (search BA lounge access, under first class lounge), it state

The Concorde Room at London Heathrow Terminal 5 and JFK Terminal 7 are available for passengers who are:


  • flying on a scheduled British Airways flight in First
  • over the age of 18 years, or if under 18 years you are accompanied by a responsible adult. (Local laws relating to the consumption of alcohol will apply.)
I remember with Oneworld rule, First passenger can guest one other passenger in, so you should be able to bring them into First class lounge, but not the Concord Room.

(I wished I am wrong, in which case I would missed an opportunity to visit Concord room last month)

Sorry I am unclear what you think has changed?

BA rules are (and have been for many years) that a BA F passenger can guest one person also on a BA flight in to the CCR.

Yes, you are incorrect and 'Concorde' has an 'e' on the end of it.

Maybe he was denied access to the wine bar.
