Silver Kris Lounge LHR
LHR Silver Kris First Class Lounge
Our driver met us just outside the St. Pancras Eurostar check-in area at 13:50 and after a "very clean" pub pit stop for Mrs. SFO and a time saving accident detour, dropped us off at T-3 at approximately 15:10. The impressive large scale Emirates 380 is always fun to see.
The SQ check-in counter was an oasis of calm at the left end of the A wing (next to Virgin), and we were the only First pax checking in, efficiently processed, inquired whether I was familiar with the location of the SKL. Took these pics after we had checked in and a family of Business pax were processed by the First Class agent.
We zipped thru Fast Track security, efficient and friendly, then the VAT tax counter, made our way to SKL lounge where we were welcomed in a friendly agent, who showed us to the First Class side of the SKL.
Not particularly luxurious seating but Mrs. SFO found some comfortable leather seats near the TV at the far end of the lounge.
Most friendly and accommodating staff who explained the various food settings and options, happily obliged with photo ops, and then made rounds every few minutes to see if we needed anything. A much happier Mrs. SFO gave her seal of approval and finally succumbed to the post 16:00 meal spread and enjoyed the Roast Pork Noodles.
The great SKL staff made the rounds every few minutes to see if there was anything we wanted. What an enjoyable few hours in tranquility.
A quick peak upstairs at the Business Class section.
Although the SKL agent announced that she would call the flight at T-30, I mentioned that I would like to board when boarding opened in order to take pics without disturbing other pax. At T-40, she came over to us and advised us that boarding had indeed commenced. Pleasant good-byes and see you again soon, we hope.
