Lounge Hopping at miserable 3rd world London Heathrow
The long, long walk from my arriving AA flight.
After the usual miserable LHR security gong show, the lovely T3 departure area.
Fortunately, lots of lounge options...
Let's start with the Qantas Lounge.
Maybe later in the day this place is nice, but no redeeming features at 8am.
After 5 minutes, let's try the American First Class Lounge.
Packed... and miserable.
Ugh. That's the American we all know. lol
And the best for last, the Cathay Pacific Lounge.

First Class Lounge dining,
Small but efficient showers.
November 2017
With a 9:30am pickup, we had time to relax and enjoy in room dining, included in our Virtuoso rate.
My English breakfast. Yikes, another reason British cuisine hasn't swept the world. LOL.
A little chilly, but another gloriously sunny day.
Less than 20 minutes later, we were at Terminal 3.
Check-in took a little longer than usual as it took all three AA agents to figure out how to remove my AAdvantage number and substitute it with my BA Executive Club number.
Then upstairs to Fast Track security where there weren't many other passengers.
We had 30 minutes or so before boarding so I tried the Cathay Pacific Lounge.
The First Class Lounge was crowded and nothing special.
With some fashionably dressed clientele, in particular the guy at the bar. Yikes.
Meanwhile in the Business Class Lounge...
