Does anyone understand how the agents decide which lounge a visitor can use here? I’ve flown Qatar business and was directed to the 1903, Air France, and directed to Escape. Next week I’m flying with Virgin, let’s see where that takes me.
The 1903 is a nicer lounge, and I’m just trying to understand the logic.
Each airline has a nominated lounge for its business class and status passengers, there’s usually information about this on their websites. With Virgin you’ll be sent to 1903.
It depends on what the airline is prepared to pay to the lounge operator. You’ll typically end up in Escape on short haul and 1903 on long. Virgin pay for 1903 as NL says.
Wo betide you if you try and jump the queue. You need to stand in the same one with all the Escape passengers until one of the desk dragons calls for 1903 PAX to come forward.
This is going to be so much fun when BA moves to T2 this summer, unless they’re planning to move some lounge reception staff over as well!

I’ve been waiting for someone to say this, is it actually going to happen?
Well, over on FT they seem to think it’s definitely going to be this summer, possibly even late May. But this is BA so anything relating to MAN is going to be at the bottom of their to-do list!
Thankyou, that makes sense.
Yes, the folk on reception do seem a little unpersonable, but I’ve seen many people being turned away for all kinds of reasons, so it must be somewhat of a soul destroying role.
