During a lengthy layover in London following my Air Mauritius flight, my wife Ashley and I opted for some lounge-hopping, commencing with a visit to the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge at London Heathrow Airport (LHR).
Having opened its doors in 2014, this lounge served as the perfect starting point for our escapade.
Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge London Heathrow – Entry & Access
Arriving at the Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge in London Heathrow Airport’s satellite terminal at Terminal 2B was a distinct experience. Accessing the lounge required navigating an underground tunnel from the security checkpoint, though thankfully there was clear signage guiding the way.
To reach the departure level where the lounge was located, we ascended two escalators, flanked by the United Club on one side and the Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Lounge on the other. Once at the departure level, Air Canada’s lounge space was on the left.
The Maple Leaf lounge operates from 7am to 8pm and extends access to business class ticket holders, those with corresponding status, and passengers flying the same day in business class or First Class with Air Canada or other Star Alliance partners. Star Alliance Gold members, including those with Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Gold and PPS Club, also enjoy access privileges.
The entryway, adorned with wooden slats, provides a warm introduction to the lounge, with the design drawing inspiration from Canada’s natural imagery, featuring light-coloured woods with accents of Air Canada red.
The engraved Maple Leaf logo near the entrance also adds a touch of elegance.
A swift boarding pass scan at check-in ensures an efficient process for lounge access.
