Check in time at LHR T2 for LOT
Hi all,
I’m on LO286 LHR-WAW later this week, departing at 06:30.
I can’t check in online (probably as they want to check I have a visa for my onward connection), so will have to wait till the check in desks open on the day.
Does anyone know what time this will be? I’d quite like to have a leisurely breakfast in the United Club lounge, so was planning to get to T2 by 04:30. Will anyone be manning the desks that early?
I’ve been caught out with BA on an early IST flight before and don’t fancy loitering around before security!
Thanks!

Exact same question asked a couple of days ago LHR T2 - car to gate times? and a continuation of same in the UK & Ireland forum Early Departure at Heathrow T2

Yep I did see the first thread you’ve linked, but it was asking for the quickest time from taxi to gate for a departure an hour later.
I’m not sure posting in the second thread will get the answer either, as it’s specifically the opening time of the LOT Polish desks I’m after, not Lufthansa. Unless they’re shared?
Thanks for replying.

You will have no trouble checking in at LHR at 04.30 but beware the UA lounge doesn't open until 05.00 as does the LH lounge. The breakfast offering is almost the same so I would choose depending on whether you get an A or B gate rather than just go to UA's lounge.

Gate-wise it will most likely be A-something so, if you want to make the most of your time in the lounge, then go for the Lufthansa lounge. That aside, the Air Canada lounge is also decent, if you fancy a stroll to the other side.
