No chance of getting into the lounge then!
Guess not  :( It's really nice that they have kosher food in LHR, shame it can't be replicated in more airports.

If you are AA Plat then should be able to get in right?
sure!
But go to the first class lounge where they will warm you up a delicious hermolis meal

I have a long stopover at LHR and will be leaving out of T5 - what do I need to get into the lounge?

I have the following cards:
Amex Plat
Chase Ink
AA Executive

Will any of those get me in?

What is the latest experience? I'll be in the first class lounge later today, I'll be starving! Do they always have Hermolis to warm up?

And no KSML on board for me since I booked today.

Last week in LHR Terminal 5 Galleries (SOUTH) Lounge - J

Bagel & lox + Tomato & rice soup.
Had to ask Chef, was brought to me by a waiter about 10 mins later in sealed packages.

Chef confirmed that Full meals are served in F (access also with BA Gold) Lounge downstairs

I will be at LHR Terminal 3 tomorrow flying BA/AA J. Do they have any Kosher food at the BA lounge or is it only for F?
I also have Priority pass.

T5 South Lounge C class - normally smoked salmon bagel + soup (no problem to ask for 2 bagels)
T5 F lounge - choice of meatballs+spaghetti, chinese chicken+rice, salmon+mashed potato or omelette  (normally at least 3 of these are available). Personally I prefer the chicken, then salmon. but all good (apart from omelette).. Also salted Kettles chips are kosher (they have KLBD hechsher)
T5 North lounge - last time I was there I got a delicious salt beef sandwich (or two..)
T3 - I have had meals there in the past, normally they have stock.

Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Yes, you can normally get an omelette in T5 Arrivals lounge. No other choices (occasonally they have bagel + roll + danish to warm up but not recently, you can ask)
Cereal (Weetabix), chips (salted) and fruit are kosher.

I was at the north galleries lounge at T5 and asked for kosher food. They said kosher meals in the lounge need to be pre-ordered from the airline. They mentioned something about sending the airline an email. They did say they will bring soup and lox bagel. Waited 20 min for food. Had to leave to gate so I didn't get to eat it. Anyone got a clue how to pre-order kosher meals for lounge in j class?
