My Lounge in Heathrow Terminal 3 is now open – take a look

No1 Lounges has officially opened its new My Lounge at Heathrow Terminal 3.

The old Club Aspire lounge has been fully refurbished and rebranded ‘to deliver a bold new My Lounge experience, laid-back, sociable, and full of character’.

What it actually does is properly differentiate the three lounges that No1 operates in Terminal 3, with Clubrooms as the most premium, No1 Lounge as the mainstream offering and My Lounge as the more casual, family friendly option.

No1 has publicly said that it intends to phase out the Club Aspire brand, which implies that we can expect a change to the Heathrow Terminal 5 site at some point.

The Club Aspire lounge at Gatwick South will be more of a challenge because there is already a My Lounge, No1 Lounge and Clubrooms in the terminal. I suspect the easiest option will be to knock-through to the existing My Lounge behind it – these two lounges were originally one space, used by Virgin Holidays, if you go back a decade.

The My Lounge Heathrow Terminal 3 website is here.

What can you find in My Lounge Heathrow Terminal 3?

The new My Lounge covers 3,200 sq ft and offers 112 seats with an open-plan layout.

There wasn’t a press preview (the team has been focussing on Jersey, which opens today) and the photographs here have been supplied by No1.

To quote:

Designed as a flexible, informal space for modern travellers, it offers a laid-back alternative to the traditional airport lounge, where guests can unwind, play, or simply switch off before they fly.

The lounge features a self-service grazing menu with hot and cold snacks, sweet treats and a pancake machine, alongside bistro-style dining and a fully tended bar serving beer, wine and spirits. Guests can also help themselves to soft drinks, juices, teas and coffees throughout the day. 

Entertainment and social zones include a games area with arcade table and PlayStation, and a cosy ‘den’, perfect for catching up on TV, films or live sport. Additional amenities include fast and free Wi-Fi, plentiful charging points, accessible toilets, baby-changing facilities, and live flight information screens to keep guests informed.

Casual seating throughout is designed with groups, families and solo travellers in mind, creating an atmosphere that is easy-going, energetic and refreshingly different, with playful design touches and an inclusive feel.

The opening of My Lounge completes a trio of refreshed spaces under the No1 Lounges portfolio at Heathrow T3. Each brand offers a distinct experience, from the indulgence of Clubrooms to the refined familiarity of No1 Lounge, and now the relaxed spirit of My Lounge – giving travellers greater freedom to choose the space that best matches their personality and reason for travel.

How to get FREE airport lounge access via UK credit cards (August 2025)

Here are the six options to get FREE airport lounge access via a UK credit card.

Your best value option (but no points):

The cheapest route to a Priority Pass airport lounge card is via the Lloyds Bank World Elite Mastercard.

The credit card has a fee of £15 per month, and comes with a Priority Pass which gives unlimited free access for the cardholder. If you add a free supplementary cardholder, they will also receive unlimited free access.

Unlike the version of Priority Pass you receive with American Express, the Lloyds Bank version also lets you access £18 airport restaurant credits.

Even better, the credit card has 0% FX fees and comes with 0.5% cashback. Full details are in my Lloyds Bank World Elite Mastercard review.

Lounge access via American Express cards:

The Platinum Card from American Express comes with two free Priority Pass cards, one for you and one for a supplementary cardholder. Each card admits two so a family of four gets in free. You get access to all 1,500 lounges in the Priority Pass network – search it here.

You also get access to Eurostar, Lufthansa and Delta Air Lines lounges.  Our in-depth review of The Platinum Card from American Express is here.

You can apply here.

The American Express Preferred Rewards Gold Credit Card is FREE for the first year. It comes with a Priority Pass card loaded with four free visits to any Priority Pass lounge – see the list here.

Additional lounge visits are charged at £24.  You get four more free visits for every year you keep the card.  

There is no annual fee for Amex Gold in Year 1 and you get a 20,000 points sign-up bonus.  Full details are in our American Express Preferred Rewards Gold Credit Card review here.

Lounge access via HSBC Premier credit cards (Premier account holders only):

HSBC Premier World Elite Mastercard gets you get a free Priority Pass card, allowing you access to the Priority Pass network.  Guests are charged at £24 although it may be cheaper to pay £60 for a supplementary credit card for your partner.

The card has a fee of £290 and there are strict financial requirements to become a HSBC Premier customer.  Full details are in my HSBC Premier World Elite Mastercard review.

Got a small business?

If you have a small business, consider The American Express Business Platinum Card which has the same lounge benefits as the personal Platinum card:

You should also consider the Capital on Tap Pro Visa credit card which has a lower fee and, as well as a Priority Pass for airport lounge access, also comes with Radison Rewards VIP hotel status:
