My Review of the Lufthansa Business Lounge, LHR T2

Courtesy of TAP Portugal, I’m now Star Alliance Gold until April next year 😉. My first relevant experience should have been Ankara, when I flew Turkish Airlines to Istanbul. However it’s only until I passed security did I find out that TK has a separate VIP terminal at Ankara airport! Well, stupid me…

So my debut ends up in Heathrow instead, as I’m flying Lufthansa to Munich. Despite their partnership with American Express, Platinum card holders can only access the Lufthansa lounge at Frankfurt and Munich, so my *Gold status is indeed useful this time.

Airline lounges at T2 are numbered, and you are looking for A1 here. It doesn’t take long to walk to the lounge after security.

The lounge is very quiet at 7am.

The little sofas, dark and yellow, are a typical find in Lufthansa lounges.

Buffet is replaced by staff service. You go to the buffet area, tell the staff what you want and they’ll put everything in a plate for you.

Options are croissants, fruit box and other snacks. There’s no hot food offered.

As a *Gold member, I should have access to the Senator lounge inside, which is supposed to be superior. Unfortunately it’s closed at the moment.

It’s a shame to see the reduced service and food options at airport lounges, although understandable. I vaguely remember reading somewhere that the Plaza Premium lounge is already offering hot food now, so you may want to visit it instead if you have access.
