The No1 lounge is terrible at EDI. I myself used it a couple of months ago. The staff are fantastic but the lounge itself is woeful with no ‘facilities’ in the lounge. The carpet in the lounge is so filthy, it would not look out of place in a Weatherspoons pub.
QR pax in Business flying from EDI should be allowed to use fellow OneWorld member lounges as per the terms and conditions as published by OneWorld? If a pax has QR FF ‘status’ then he/she should be able to use the BA lounge. In theory every QR pax travelling in business, or with the required FF ‘status’ should be able to access the BA lounge in EDI.
If this is an issue then they have every reason for bringing this up with OneWorld, as it is an exemption to the rule.
