List of Lounges Currently OPEN to BA Passengers (open wiki for details)
This wiki includes details of open lounges accessible to premium (F/J or Gold/Silver) passengers travelling on BA operated services, either within the terminal BA depart from or accessible via airside transfer.
Other lounges may be accessible for passengers willing to transfer landside to other terminals or concourses, although this is generally not recommended due to time constraints as a result of needing to re-clear security. Additionally, some airports may offer pay-in lounges which are not otherwise accessible by BA premium passengers (either temporarily or permanently).
Most open lounges are operating with a limited food and beverage service, and other services may be unavailable or modified.
For opening hours, please check the oneworld lounge listing at https://www.oneworld.com/airport-lounges?location= which is now being regularly updated.
If your airport isn't listed below, this probably means there is no lounge available for BA premium passengers (either temporarily or permanently) - please check the oneworld listing for the most up-to-date information.

Hi folks, thought Id ask here as its a fairly active thread.
Am I right Im thinking that a BA codeshare on a non-OW airline means no lounge access?
Circumstances would be a flight from EDI on LM with a BA number as a GCH.

If you are on a BA issued ticket (125-...) and booked on a BA codeshare with any airline, then as a BA gold you get access to a BA lounge. So yes you should be allowed in to EDI.

Early departure and visit to Galleries Club North and South this morning, place an absolute zoo - a hybrid mix of self service coffee with food delivery leading to queues around the lounge. Ordered a bacon roll which was stone cold, add to that no champagne available.
Getting increasingly frustrated at the poor experience in the lounges during the morning rush, Im sure in no small part these issues are caused by the CE Mega Cabins.. made all the more worse by by hangry and caffeine deprived!

There a lot of non status passengers taking advantage of the cheap CE fares and are certainly maximising their drinking.
I recall a post on here the other day by someone determined to ensure they have a CE lounge at LGW, and not a contract one, apparently it would constitute a "slap around the face" to have to use Aspire over BA for a SH flight.
Considering a lot of third party lounges have better food I can only infer than they were there for the free Booze.....
lots of entitlement and expectations, which based on reviews on here and feedback from friends about CE lounges right now, will lead to even more annoyed people.

Nah I can survive it, too many LCC hops from Luton in my past to get too uppity! Just thought I'd put the counter that it's not (only) about the better booze - I'd take GF over a No 1 or Aspire any day even if I was only on the coffee.

I'm hoping the upcoming announcement of relaxation of testing requirements (for the vaccinated), combined with a drop off in summer sun seekers will give BA the time to review their UK lounge operations.
For GCs I think customers, staff and BA would benefit hugely from a re-introduction of self-serve drink. There's no longer a valid reason, IMO, from an infection prevention control aspect not to return to self-serve. For food they could opt for a canteen style of having the food on display but served by staff to ensure everyone isn't handling the same serving spoons/coughing all over the food.
And if they introduce something like this then can revert to Champagne being on demand only rather than having to pretend there are supply issues. Or just remove it entirely from GCs to save the disappointment.
