Heathrow Upper Class Wing

The Upper Class Wing at London Heathrow enables business passengers to speed through the terminal quicker than ever before, moving from limo to lounge in under 10 minutes. For the first time, passengers can benefit from a dedicated security channel, for use exclusively by Virgin Atlantic customers. After passing through this unique fast-track, they will emerge in the heart of the terminal building and only a short walk from the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse. Upper Class passengers and Flying Club Gold members making their own way to the airport can check-in at the Upper Class Check-In, in Zone A of the main terminal, before taking a priority lift straight to the dedicated security channel. For those Upper Class customers not wishing to linger and enjoy the delights of the Clubhouse they can check in 60 minutes prior to their scheduled departure time at the latest, and whizz through the dedicated security channel straight to the gate
