Europe for the Holidays: British Airways Galleries First Lounge London Heathrow and British Airways Club Europe London to Zürich

British Airways Galleries Lounge Brussels
With 30 minutes free between security and boarding, it was time to visit the British Airways lounge. Our American 757 for the flight was nearby, although occluded by a railing. Without an upgrade to business class yet, it was time … Continue reading
