Video: Look at the Redesigned British Airways Lounge in San Francisco
West Coast-based flyers will be excited to check out the British Airways Lounge in San Francisco, which re-opened on July 10 after a round of renovations. TPG wrote about the update last week, but passengers who still haven't had a chance to check it out in person at SFO can get a better look at the space in a new video released by the airline.
The video shows off the new dining areas, as well as productive spaces and the bar. Observant viewers will also see a jetway in the back, allowing passengers to board their flights directly from the lounge.
You can find the BA lounge in the international terminal at SFO. It is open to first- and business-class passengers flying on British Airways and Iberia, as well as to eligible Oneworld passengers and BA passengers with with Sapphire and Emerald status in the Oneworld alliance.
