Quick question from me, Do we think BA may have done some work on their T5 lounges like they've done with other lounges? maybe not to that extent but at least some work?

BA has just confirmed that first and arrivals lounge opened from tomorrow at T5

and they’ve made a few changes I suppose. Link below

I wonder if the CCR Card will get you on to the Concorde Terrace:


Who can access the Concorde Terrace area in the First lounge?
We have a created a dedicated area within the First lounge that can be used if you are travelling in First, called the Concorde Terrace. It will be hosted by one of our colleagues, so please speak to them if you require any assistance.

They changed that quickly! It was just for F customers when I looked a couple hours back. Good to see BA and BS are listening. Can't wait to fly again. Haven't flown since end Feb!

crazyarmadillo get used to things changing is my best advice. I have one trip that is currently on it's third rebook due to BA suspending or cancelling routes. It's currently so pronounced that I have BA paying for 3 AA legs booked on an Amex 2-4-1 itinerary ( if you're unaware they are very strictly only to be flown on BA Metal under normal circumstances)

Any word on when any of the UK outstation lounges may begin to reopen? Glasgow in particular.

Yes please. Are we allowed access to any other lounge?

No lounge access currently. There is further speculation about lounges reopening in the reopening thread.

Gatwick North

The 2205 to Punta Cana PUJ is starting again from 10th December but will fly from Gatwick North Terminal. Does anyone know what lounges will be available if any?

BA has.been using the Aspire Lounge at LGW. ba.com continues to list it as the LGW lounge. Also see the reopening thread where it has been discussed occasionally.

The Aspire Lounge in LGW North Terminal closes at 15:00 ( 3 pm ) so probably that's why the OP is asking which lounge she would be entitled to.
Unfortunately, for a 22:05 flight, there would be no lounge offered by BA.


Edit: See post 163, 165 & 166.

I believe the "2205" refers to the flight number "BA 2205" which is the LGW-PUJ flight that departs LGW at 1400 (unless BA has suddenly changed the departure time to the evening).
