Passenger Horrified after Spotting Mice in British Airways Business Lounge
In the News
Forget 'snakes on a plane' , they should bring out a new movie, 'mice in the executive lounge'
When you pay for the use of the business class lounge at the airport you expect first class treatment and luxury while you are there relaxing and waiting for your departure
What you dont expect is freeloader mice scurrying around your feet scavenging for food
This is what happened at Heathrow in the British Airways business lounge
What surprised me most was when someone complained to a British Airways executive, the agent said they 'adhere to the highest standards and it's normal for mice to reach some areas' ???
That's alright then , no problem
You just have to be prepared to share your executive experience with rodents
I like likkle mice,especially field ones as long as they're not hanging out in gangs and commandeering all the cheddar. Collective noun for mice is a Mischief of mice..kinda appropriate sometimes eh?
Its not a surprise. Mice and rats are everywhere. We need to remember we took over their habitat. It's not nice I agree but we need to accept it as part of life. There's food in the ba lounge it'll attract mice. At least it wasn't one of tge kids throwing them jntk the lounge just for the fun like at my school
Jerseydrew Its true J, they are everywhere, but it is a worry when they are close to kitchens and where they prepare food. Surely a big business like British Airways can keep them out of the lounge area, imagine if we all gave up and allowed mice in our homes , pets being the exception mind
Jerseydrew I suppose one consolation is they weren't rats J, they cause more damage and disease than mice , maybe they should introduce one or two cats into the lounge area , they could be on the payroll
I can understand why they wouldn’t be happy as it is an upcharge area and if you are paying for it you wouldn’t expect there to be rodents about. However I’d probably just ask for a refund and leave it at that, there’s bigger problems in the world
They upgraded from Amsterdam
A mouse lived in a windmill in old Amsterdam
A windmill with a mouse in and he wasn't grousin'
He sang every morning, "How lucky I am
Living in a windmill in old Amsterdam!"…
I would be terrified, yesterday our little black cat had left me a present when I got back from work/ Mass..
Luckily my partner came home at same time & removed it,then he had to go & clean our wall down with hot water & disinfectant as there was bits of mousie!
