As noted on the CX board it now seems to be end of September for the CX lounge reopening http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/27160803-post137.html

I am next passing through T3 at the end of October. I thought it was far enough past the original target date that it would be open by then, but with all these delays I am getting concerned!

I went to T3 yesterday, Sun Oct 2nd. The Cathay lounge is still not open despite it was supposed to open in Sep... (I was happy with the Indian food and champagne at Galleries First, though.)

Hi, Quick question. I currently don't have any status with oneworld though will regain BA EC Bronze followed by Silver in a few months. I have a few flights in Finnair Business class coming up over the next few months. What lounge at LHR T3 am I entitled to use as a Non Elite Business class traveller on Finnair?

Good point on No 1 lounge. As a AY customer you can use that too.

Hi,
A quick follow up question, there is a lot of people recommending the No1 Traveller lounger over BA J Lounge in Terminal 3 (I had enough of AA after US travels). Are there any particular benefits, I only used No1 at Gatwick and it was always crowded place to be with food to order which when I am in hurry never worked for me tbh.
I am travelling on AY in 2 weeks in J and I am not interested in running around between lounges, so any help appreciated.

That isn't correct. Some details of the BA GC offerings in post #1 here http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/briti...d-options.html
