My three-day trip to Edinburgh comes to and end. I researched my options going back to London, and flying back (redeeming Avios on BA) was the better of the two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve been to Edinburgh quite a few times, but somehow never visited the BA or Aspire Lounge yet. This time however, Plaza Premium<\/a> just opened a new site in August, and I’d love to give it a try first considering how great their lounges usually are.<\/p>\n\n\n

The lounge is located near gate 13, which is a fair bit of walk after the security checkpoints. When you are upstairs, the Aspire and Plaza Premium lounges are here side by side. The main complimentary ways of getting access to Plaza Premium lounges are via Amex Platinum<\/a> and Dragonpass. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upon entering, there is a VIP Room to the left which is reservation only.<\/p>\n\n\n

The Gin Bar is what makes the lounge stand out. You don’t usually see non-airline lounges that feature a bar, not to mention and proper and very stylish one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I didn’t order anything, but I assume beers and wines are free whereas spirits and cocktails are chargeable.<\/p>\n\n\n

The entertainment room is another highlight. With foosball, shuffleboard, animation and kids’ toys, there literally is something for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n
