Emirates has unveiled a new global lounge concept that will be rolled out across key destinations worldwide this year, beginning with newly redesigned lounges in Munich and Frankfurt.

New Lounges to Offer Premium Amenities

The airline plans to open revamped lounges in Manchester in July, Mauritius in August and Istanbul in October, investing more than AED50 million ($13.6 million) in each facility.

The new design mirrors Emirates' latest cabin interiors and features dedicated spaces for work, dining, relaxation and socialising. Premium amenities include wireless charging, locally inspired dining, live cooking stations, barista and mixologist services, spa-style shower suites, quiet zones, and upgraded prayer rooms.

Inspired by Dubai's flagship lounges, the concept incorporates contemporary architecture, integrated technology and sustainability-focused features while showcasing Emirati culture through signature design elements.

Accessible to First and Business Class passengers and eligible Emirates Skywards members, the lounges aim to elevate the ground experience for premium travellers.

Emirates currently operates 42 dedicated airport lounges, including eight at Dubai International Airport and 34 across major airports worldwide, reinforcing its commitment to luxury, innovation and customer experience.

Adel Al Redha, Deputy President and Chief Operations Officer at Emirates, said: “Our investment in our next-generation signature lounge concept reflects Emirates' continued commitment to delivering a seamless, premium experience at every stage of the journey. These new lounges have been designed to combine refreshed luxurious interiors with the elevated hospitality and innovation that Emirates is known for - a space for our customers to relax, enjoy, dine and prepare for their travel in comfort. As we expand this concept and theme across our global network, it will set a new benchmark and standard for airport lounges and further strengthen our premium proposition.”
