Outbound went pretty smoothly, phone the Meet & Greet 15 mins before I got to Gatwick and Meteor were there ready and waiting (highly recommend).

Check in smooth, went to the end of the premium lane but only a couple of check-ins open and in fairness they were busy with EC but a lovely young lady from UC came over and told me she would check me in.

Check in was smooth, no upgrades available but the flight was on time so off to the No1 for a coffee and maybe a Chardonnay. Rocked up at No1 and greeted the young lady pleasantly and asked is there room ? "Certainly sir may I see your bording card"? I handed her my card and then produced my Priority Pass card but then it was........Errrrr urrrrnn (that's the sound when a contestant gets wrong answer on family fortunes) they lovely lady said they were full with booking and directed me to the Aspire Lounge....hmmmm me thinks PP not good then at times ??

Oh well off I went to Aspire and to be honest it was fine, had a coffee, juice and cereal and all was good but would prefer No1.

Boarded on time and seated aisle row in the bubble, IFE was good and food acceptable bit nothing to write home about.
CC just done the bare minimum unfortunately but I do know from experience its hit and miss with CC as regards the service, unfortunate but true.

Landed a few minutes ahead of schedule butr again EC passengers downstairs are not held back so we had to merge at the bottom of the stairs to disemabark the plane v( but boy was immigration busy but then again it was a Thursday so it's to be expected.

All in all good flight y)

Never heard of Meteor meet and greet, but will definitely give them a shot if I ever need the service, thanks for the recommendation.

A shame about the PP mixup, but I guess the lounges do have a bottom line to protect after all.

Always a pity when the CC don't leave you feeling well looked after - just read your other TR and the service there seemed stellar. Ahh inconsistency, quelle surprise ii)
