    Hi

    Just an FYI following feedback from folk on here. Travelled on 2 separate occasions last month ex-MAN and used Priority Pass at Aspire both times. No issues with access.

    Not only that, but food exempted, the lounge was excellent I thought, great service and good drinks. For refence this was once at 1200 (waiting for EK18) and once at 1800 (waiting for EK20) when the airport was very quiet.

    T1 Aspire has been very good lately at accommodating passholders prior to the Emirates flights. I often travel around the same time as their departures and no refusals when presented based on the small sample of those ahead of me at the reception desk. A friend reported problem-free access around noon on Saturday 04 March to the T3 Escape using Priority Pass. I was stunned when I heard and obviously requested photographic proof.

    Saw a sign stating that PP holders wouldn’t be allowed into the T3 lounge last time that I flew through MAN.

    That sign is permanently in plAce. They move it inside the door at closing time and put it back out each morning.

    Lol! I am connecting to LHR in ET next month en route to GIB with an expiring 241 so will see how they react to my BA Silver card. Last year I was in the queue behind a Gold member who was flying economy and he was refused entry so it’s anybody’s guess. We can always go upstairs to old lounge, hope that’s still lovely and quiet!
