Thanks for the responses - thought that would be the case since, as pointed out above, Check In is almost always with the operating carrier but just thought I would gently check!

Will see if I can get the BT Locator from the GGL Team - tried their website with the BA one and no joy - as now I am 100% sure it is check in with BT I will probably go HBO and cut out one step on the process.

Am flying Y

Don’t suppose flashing a Gold Card at Premium Gatwick would get me in if BP doesn’t say “Fast Track” or whatever they say on LGW BPs?

It won’t. Fast track at lgw is accessed through no scan and yours will give a big red cross showing you ineligible. You’ll merely have left a few people go in front of you I’m the normal queue you’ll have to rejoin, so basically better to go straight there.

If fast track security is important to you, you can always purchase it from the Gatwick website.

Luggage on Air Baltic

[QUOTE=travelswithmybriefcase;34343517]No - each pax has 1x 23kg allowance as booked on BA.com. Not HBO fare[/QUOTE

So if the flight is booked through BA.com you get a 23kg baggage allowance

I'm flying POS LGW in Club World & I'm BA Silver.

I'm connecting to Air Baltic in economy, I'm assuming no to lounge access even if inbound J.

I was going to go to LHR to get the BA but, I thought it was too risky with only 3:30.
