An Abundance of New Airport Lounges

New airport lounges are popping up so often these days, you’d think the airlines are under the mistaken impression that travelers actually want to sit around at the airport. Nevertheless, airport lounges are great perks for business travelers and others willing to pay to access them. While the most impressive example I’ve heard of recently is the Qantas first class lounge in Sydney (free spa treatments while you await your flight), the UK’s Business Traveller doesn’t even mention it in its recent round-up Lounging Around.

Instead, the story mentions Club 48, the new lounge from Eos Airlines, at London Stansted airport. There, travelers are treated to wi-fi and 50-inch TVs, while in Tokyo, Virgin has opened a new Clubhouse with a sun deck and two swanky lounges for its first class (upper class) passengers. And that’s not all. Star Alliance recently opened a new lounge in Los Angeles, while Japan Airlines has revamped its lounges at Narita Airport.

Have you been to a fabulous airport lounge recently? Tell us about it, and maybe we’ll feature it here.
