Terminal 5 to get new walkway to speed up security
British Airways has announced the development of a walkway from check-in to the lounges at Heathrow Terminal 5 for its First and Gold Executive Club passengers.
The First Wing, set to open in April, will be located next to the airlines First check-in area.
Passengers will be guided to two new dedicated security lanes, designed to speed up the process of passing through the airport.
Once through security, customers will have dedicated access to BA’s Galleries First lounge and the airline’s flagship Concorde Room.
BA said the move would also reduce the number of customers using the current North and South security, speeding up the journey for all customers, especially those travelling in Club World.
