Emirates reopens lounge at Düsseldorf Airport following refurbishment
The Emirates lounge at Düsseldorf Airport
Following a seven-week refurbishment project, Emirates announced today that its Düsseldorf Airport (DUS) lounge has reopened. The exclusive 700 square meter lounge area now welcomes Emirates passengers back with cream-coloured leather seats, new furniture, fresh carpets and updated lighting and kitchen equipment.
The lounge can host 115 travellers at a time, making it the single largest airline lounge at Düsseldorf Airport and one of the largest Emirates Lounges in continental Europe.
The refurbished facilities in Düsseldorf mark the conclusions of an investment made by the airline in Germany. Within the past five months, Emirates' airport lounges in Frankfurt, Hamburg and Munich have also been updated.
"We are constantly looking for ways to further enhance the travel experience for our valued customers both in the air and on ground, Emirates' exclusive airport lounges are an integral part of our 'Fly better' brand promise. The investment in the refurbishment of all lounges demonstrates our commitment to our passengers and to our airport partners in Germany,” said Volker Greiner, Emirates Vice President North & Central Europe.
The Emirates Lounge at Düsseldorf Airport is open daily, three hours before the departure of flights EK56 and EK58. The lounge offers a variety of hot and cold dishes that change monthly from caterer DO & CO, including numerous vegan options, a free bar service and private shower rooms. This lounge is accessible to all Emirates First Class and Business Class passengers and Skywards members with Platinum or Gold status traveling in Economy Class. Other travellers can access the lounge for a fee.
The lounge was first opened in May 2009 as the 20th Emirates Lounge worldwide. Emirates has been flying from Düsseldorf since 2001 and its two daily scheduled flights with a mix of A380 and 777-300ER aircraft. Emirates is currently the only airline that operates DUS with the double-decker A380 aircraft. In total, the airline offers more than 900 daily seats in a three-class configuration from Düsseldorf to Dubai and beyond.
Emirates’ lounges are a 'Fly better' benefit that Emirates Premium Class customers enjoy. The complimentary Emirates chauffeur service is available to First Class and Business Class passengers in and around Düsseldorf, Frankfurt, Munich and Hamburg.
