The U.S. mega-carrier United Airlines has reopened its United Club lounge at London Heathrow’s Terminal 2. Located opposite Gate B46, the United Club welcomes customers travelling in United Polaris business class, United Club members, Star Alliance Gold customers, as well as First and Business class customers who are holding boarding passes for same-day travel on flights operated by other Star Alliance carriers departing from Heathrow.
Featuring floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the airfield, luxurious décor and vintage aviation-themed artwork, the United Club offers seating for over 280 guests, a 25-seat full-service bar, buffet area, two coffee stations, a TV lounge and seven private phone booths. Seating areas and furnishings are optimally designed for either work or relaxation, with abundant power outlets. The United Premium Services team is also on hand to assist customers with reservations and seat assignments. The United Club additionally offers eight spacious shower suites for customer use, including valet service with garment pressing and steaming.
“We are so pleased to offer our premium customers access to our Heathrow lounge once again,” said Bob Schumacher, United’s Director Sales, United Kingdom and Ireland. “I know just how much our customers appreciate this fantastic lounge. Our lounge experience provides comfort and relaxation, as well as excellent food and drink, shower facilities and workspace.”
United CleanPlusSM signage has also been introduced in the United Club in regard to social distancing and the wearing of masks which is mandatory. Electrostatic spraying is used to regularly clean the lounge and sneeze guards have been installed at the welcome desk and bar.
