Virgin Atlantic Heathrow Clubhouse lounge adds Grey Goose vodka bar

Virgin Atlantic has added an extra twist to its world-class Clubhouse business class lounge at London Heathrow's Terminal 3 with the opening of the Grey Goose Loft on the upper deck of the expansive lounge.

The vodka bar makes a a chic, atmospheric addition to what's already one of the world's best business class lounges.

Virgin Atlantic's crew can't wait to welcome you into the new Grey Goose Loft.

Inside you'll find Mollis lounge chairs from RVW's Jonas Nordgren and Artur Moustafa, professional mixologists to tailor-make you a cocktail, and music from an integrated system launched yesterday by DJ Pete Tong.

A relaxing beverage and chilled Balearic electronica from Pete Tong...is there a better way to wait for a flight?

While you sip your cocktail, Virgin Atlantic's staff are also happy to offer recommendations for the best bars at your destination.

The upstairs loft area is light and spacious during the day...

...but becomes an intimate chillout area before a night flight. 

Drinks for two? Yes, if you're a Gold or Platinum Velocity member -- you can bring a guest into the Clubhouse.

Virgin Australia's Velocity Gold and Platinum members will be able to access the Clubhouse -- and bring a guest into the lounge as well.
