Creator's Key Takeaways

I've paid just over 23 pound for this and the reason why I've got it cheaper than normal if you go in two hours before your departure you actually get it cheaper

the only criticism I would say is there's no knives and forks out and I actually physically had to ask from a knife and fork

well interesting experience would I do an airport lounge again no

I've gone for ham and cheese sour bread toasting it's actually taken around about half an hour to cook because it was frozen

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book airport lounges two hours before departure for a cheaper rate
βœ“Ask for knives and forks at the airport lounge if not provided
βœ“Consider full insurance for car hire to avoid large deposit holds
