Flying Business With Ba - Access To First Class Lounge?

[Jennykenny]

Is First Class solely for First Class??
Am flying Business with BA to Tenerife in December. Do I have access to their First Class lounge at Gatwick?
(Can't get any response from BA on this.) Thanks.

You will be able to access their lounge. I don't think they call it a First Class lounge, though.

Thanks to you both.

Clicking on 'Lounges' on this page shows that BA's First and Terraces Lounges at Gatwick are currently not in use anyway. Instead, they're inviting relevant customers to make use of the No 1 Lounge in the North Terminal (which is otherwise available to all travellers for £28 in advance or £35 on the door):

I assume that from the 25th of January the No 1 Lounge in the South Terminal will then be used (as BA flights will fly from there from that date) until such time as BA's own lounges are available again.

Buenchico many thanks.
Really useful info as always.

No you go into the Business Class lounge, but if you go to the bathroom you see the entrance to the 1st class lounge. Not sure if they check on that door. Why do you want to go in there if you are not flying 1st class and you are not a Gold card holder??
