How we check lounge prices

The sample visit

Each airport page prices every lounge for one visit: 2 adults, on one set day and time, stated above the price table. Most pages use a winter weekday morning. Airports whose lounges open only in summer use a summer day instead, and say so. Using one visit means every seller is compared on the same terms; your own day and time will give different prices, so the links go to the place where you can check yours.

Where the facts come from

We read sources in this order and use the first that states a fact:

1. The lounge operator's own site and booking page, and the airport's own site.
2. The membership networks' own lounge pages: Priority Pass, LoungeKey, DragonPass, American Express and Plaza Premium. We use these for where a lounge is, opening hours, stay limits and seasonal closures when the operator and the airport do not say.
3. Sellers' own booking pages, such as Holiday Extras, Lounge Pass and LoungePair, for their prices.
4. Airlines' own pages, for airline lounges.

We never use AI answers, search result summaries, unofficial airport guides, blogs, forums or review sites as a source. When sources disagree, the page says so rather than choosing one silently. Every figure links to its source at the foot of the page, with the date we read it.

What a price means

A price is the total for 2 adults that the seller showed for the sample visit, on the date shown in the sources. Prices are in pounds when the seller quotes pounds. Outside the UK, the airport's or lounge's own price is shown in its own currency, and a seller that quotes neither pounds nor that currency is shown in US dollars. Different currencies are never compared without saying so. Tables are sorted cheapest first.

What we leave out

Lounges that are closed on the sample date are not listed until they reopen. Restaurants, bars and shops that membership schemes list as lounge offers are left out. Discount codes are shown only when the business prints them for everyone with an end date; codes sent to one person by email are described, not printed. There are no star ratings, because we have no source for them.

How often we check

Every page is priced again each month, and opening hours, closures and membership access are read again at the same time. Each page shows the date it was last checked.

What checking does not mean

A price is what a seller quoted on the date we read it; it can change at any time. Whether you can enter is always the lounge's decision. Sendero Flights takes no bookings: you book with the lounge, the airport or the seller, on their terms.

Corrections

If a price, an hour or a detail has changed, write to [email protected] with the page and what you saw. Aden, who edits the site, reads every message.
