There have been many side effects of the Covid pandemic. Some more severe and impactful than others. The effect on the Main Street is evident in every major town with plenty of shuttered shop fronts.

One less severe, but equally annoying, effect is the impact it’s had on travel. Pre pandemic BA had exclusive use of Heathrow Terminal 5 but with the global downturn in travel twinned with the slow down of the economy many American Airlines now use T5. And that’s where the great unwashed come in. At the risk of sounding like an utter snob the number of uncouth loud Americans in the T5 lounges is offensive. They sit stuffing their faces loudly communicating with some poor unfortunate over FaceTime for the entire lounge to hear.

Get a booth. No one cares!!!
