Well @norbert2008 thank you for your review as I’ll be experiencing CE back from FAO having spent 6 days on the Algarve recuperating from Eurovision weekend in Lisbon. It’ll be interesting to see if the lounge situation has improved.
Short answer. No, it is still the same. I spent 7 hours there last Monday waiting for an EZ flight to LGW. The inbound, from NCE, took 6 hours to be de-iced at NCE.
Next month a new lounge opens in FAO for non-Schengen flights, predominantly to the UK. BA are highly unlikely to ever have their own lounge at FAO. The longe is shared and offered by most airlines as a paid entry, or Priority Pass.
Security clearance time has improved at FAO as there are now a bank of machines which only require liquids to be removed. These are the bank to the right so ask for those.[/quote]
Oh I’ve just found it here @FaroFlyer I shall not bother holding my breath!
