Airport Lounge at George Best Belfast City Airport

Rockman60

Hi

I am flying out of George Best Belfast City Airport later this week and with Covid requirements and security checks I have been advised to arrive at the airport 3 hours before my flight. As I will have quite a bit of time to kill I am enquiring if anyone has used the Aspire Lounge and if so was it worth it and is there a good range of food and drink?. It is working out at £50 for the 2 of us for 3 hours. Also does anyone know if there are any discount/promotional codes about which might save few pounds?

Thanks

We flew from there last weekend, and security etc didn't take longer than normal, and aside from masks and optional hand sanitiser stations everywhere, there wasn't anything different. Everyone was still shovelled into the security area with no distancing or temperature checks. 

It was just within the common travel area with hand luggage and we had plenty of time to kill getting there an hour before the gate shut - no idea if you're going somewhere with different requirements or if your airline are being overly cautious. 

I know it's not quite what you're asking, but figured it might be relevant!

Good to hear than queues etc not too bad. We are flying to Amsterdam and have to take Randox antigen test prior to departure. Also have had to fill in a few forms which may or may not be checked.
