EmiratesGatwick Airport lounge tips
Check your terminal first
- —Gatwick's North and South terminals are not linked airside, so pick a lounge in the terminal on your boarding pass before you clear security.
- —Both terminals have a No1 Lounge and a My Lounge, so the same pass type works whichever terminal you fly from.
Timing
- —Plaza Express in the North Terminal closes at 16:00, so it suits morning and early-afternoon flights only.
- —Club Aspire (South) opens at 06:00 and closes at 19:00; early risers should use the No1 Lounge or My Lounge, which open at 04:00.
- —Most Gatwick lounges admit you up to 3 hours before departure, so arriving earlier than that won't get you in sooner.
Know the extra charges
- —Clubrooms in both terminals charges DragonPass and Priority Pass members an extra fee per visit at the door.
- —Both Clubrooms lounges admit ages 12 and over only, so families with younger children should choose another lounge in their terminal.
- —Clubrooms in the North Terminal closes at 18:00 and is not sold on LoungeDeal; the South Terminal Clubrooms is.
