Dublin Lounge Access
Evening All,
I’ve been researching the rules for lounge access in Dublin when flying to London. I see that if you are flying EI to LHR or LGW, lounge access is available for BA Gold members.
What happens when flying BA to LHR? And, this being particularly of interest, what about BA to LCY?
Thanks in advance!

The DAA lounge in T1, which BA did use, has not had its contract renewed by BA - so currently no lounge access is available unless you wish to pay for it.
If you decide to fly with EI out of T2 for lounge access - be aware their Dublin lounge has still not reopened either.

As others have mentioned, BA flights to LHR and LCY have access to the DAA lounge, however at the moment there is no contract and no lounge access as a result.

Flying BA to LHR this evening from Dublin. I know I can't access the EI lounge, sadly.
Has access to the DAA lounge been restored or am I doomed to sit in the terminal?
Thank you

The lounge shuts at 17:00 though, so if you’re on.a late flight, you may be out of luck.

Yes, it is. Make sure you use your digital card from the app with the barcode as they wouldn’t accept the physical card last time I was there in February.
