This is like a ticket valid for a specific amount of hours. You can check and compare the available day passes for various airport lounge areas in UK airports on bookfhr.com. The first thing that you need to pay attention to is the time window in which you can use this pass to ensure that it complements your flight. If the time suits you, you can then compare prices and benefits to find and book the best lounge deal for you.
