News in brief:
Opening date for the Aspire Terminal 5 lounge announced
Via their Twitter feed, Servisair / Swissport has announced that the new ‘Aspire’ lounge in Terminal 5 will open on August 4th.
This is good news for me if true as I am passing through T5 on August 6th!
Slightly suprisingly, the base entry price has been set at £35. This is – to be fair – the same as Plaza Premium charges in Terminal 2 for a two hour visit, but that lounge is of a very high calibre. oozes class and is the definition of ‘oasis of calm’. It remains to be seen if Aspire can reach this level. A computer image of the design is below.
If you are planning to visit the Aspire lounge and do not have a Priority Pass, your best option is to book in advance and guarantee admission via the Aspire website here.
