I thought if you booked through Virgin Holidays you could buy lounge access?

A family friend wants a treat for a birthday celebration in December. The lounge at Heathrow is the big thing.
Where there are x4 travelling, but the cost x4 Upper Class fares is not sensible just for this thrill, is there any clever way to access this lounge for ££ money, points, or anything cleverer than that?

My son (aged 24) is travelling LHR - LAX on 11 July on 15.45 flight. He will be checking in around 13.00. An offer to guest him into the Virgin Clubhouse would be most appreciated. If you can accommodate please PM me.

Just a heads up but according to a thread on v-flyer.com VS have changed the policy for allowing guests into the CH in that the guest must be on the same flight as the host.

Thanks for the offer Gerry, but I managed to get my son into the lounge via V-Flyer. He thoroughly enjoyed his experience there. He is returning from LAX in UC so he will be able to compare the LHR lounge with the Air France lounge in LAX.

Hello! It's quite a long shot, but I'll be flying IAD to LHR, departing at 18:40 on September 19th (and arriving the morning of September 20th). I've got a layover of over 9 hours in Heathrow... is there anyone at all who might be able to sign me in? If so, it would be very much appreciated!!
Thanks very much, either way.

Welcome to FlyerTalk.
Which flight are you flying out on? Your 'sponsor' has to be on the same flight as you under the new rules.
