Knowing what LHR clubhouse will offer, how about HKG? Do they offer hot food, drinks etc? What else do they offer?

Tell me all about it.

They have a small finger buffet, some hot food on order from the menu - I had their Club Sandwich. It was very yummy!! Fantastic bar, nice balcony over looking the rest of departures, some internet terminals, a TV & games area and hot showers.

The HKG CH is airside and located next to the 2 gates that VS use at HKG.

The bar is well stocked and service is usually prompt based on my experience. The CH has a menu with hot food and snacks on offer.

The CH has shower facilities, a business area and I think it has a couple of TV's. (At least one anyway!)

You can sit outside the enclosed area on a balcony, this provides you with views of VS's gate area and across the rest of the terminal.

Here's a couple of pics I snapped on one of my visits....

Is it really wrong to enjoy standing at the balcony looking out from the lounge just so that others can see you in there?

Hell NO! [y]

Is the lounge like the JFK, open air and not enclosed the LHR? If it is open air, I will be giving the poor people a wave! [}:)]

The problem is I will be the one standing outside looking in. Father is in UC (my treat), mother and I are in Y. So I guess I'm letting mother in the CH as guest leaving me behind. I can now tell them what to expect in there and I will just wait outside at the gate [:#].

Oh bummer! You could always ask at the reception, to see if they could let you in? It might be worth a try? Or see if a fellow V-Flyer will be there at the same time? When you are you travelling?

Or you can stand below and have them lower a nice G&T and other titbits to you. Just make they have a basket and a length of rope. [:w]

Thanks for the link, finally watched it. Is smaller than I thought it would be.

Yes, I too was surprised at how small it was but it is well planned and broken up into small areas so it never looks crowded
