Hi
I've done some searching for my upcoming trip but am a little confused. On this forum I see references to the First lounge and Al Reem for Platinum. The VA site says that in Abu Dhabi I can use the Etihad Premium Lounge. This corresponds with the only lounge I find mentioned on the EY site.
I am flying Brisbane - Abu Dhabi - Heathrow as a Virgin Australia Business Reward on Etihad. So basically business on Etihad.
I am a Plat VA.
Is the First and Premium and Al Reem the same thing? Does Plat have a better lounge than the business ticket has access to?
And do I need to take something special to get them to recognise me? I have had trouble in places like the US where they just don't know about VA.
Also any tips for Heathrow?
