V-Flyer

Flying Dark Side tomorrow with a 2.5 hour stopover at LHR (arriving and departing with BA). I currently don't have any Avios status, can I pay for me and a colleague to get entry into the Galleries?

If not, are there any other lounges I can buy entry into?

Failing all of the above, any decent pub/restaurants with runway views and wifi so I can do some work?

None of the BA lounges offer pay-to-enter.

There is, however, an Aspire lounge which does.

Thank you, it was £40 to get into the Aspire but I got in BA Galleries in the end, but that's another story... epic trip report on the way.
