VIP Lounges at Heathrow Airport

I'd heard lots about VIP airport lounges from friends and family but never had the chance to use one myself, Recently when flying I decided to use one called Servisair Lounge Heathrow airport.

So what can I say about airport lounges at Heathrow airport? Well I just wish I'd used them before because they are just fantastic. When I entered the lounge I was greeted with the sight of a beautiful private lounge area which was very quiet and had a view over the airport, almost immediately I felt totally relaxed. It's quite amazing to think that two minutes in a lounge can make you feel relaxed, but it's true it was away from the noise of the airport and I truly felt like I was in a totally different place.

I made my way over to a comfortable lounge chair overlooking the airport, it was like a private secluded part of the lounge set up just for me. After getting settled down I went over to the bar to get myself a drink. I chose to get a beer but you could choose from many kind of drinks, all types of alcoholic drinks (except champagne) to all types of juices and fizzy drinks. I then chose a couple of newspapers to read and plenty of snacks such as crisps and nuts and made my way back to my own private area.

I spent a very relaxing hour reading my newspapers and having a drink and something to eat. I still had a couple of hours left, in fact I felt so relaxed I could have had a quick sleep! Instead I got myself another drink and spent a bit of time just sitting down watching planes taking off and landing. The time passed really quickly and before I knew it my flight was being announced.

Spending time in an airport lounge is time very well spent, I can safely say that I will always use an airport lounge when flying in future because for around £17 it really is worth every penny.

There are many reasons for this but by far the main one is the feeling of real relaxation, it really does get you ready for flying.

I used a Servisair lounge at Heathrow airport but there a plenty of other lounges to choose from, I would suggest trying them all!

I booked online with UK Airport Car Parks, the usual place I use. Go to airport lounges and try an airport lounge out for yourself.
