Bringing You Up To Date With Our Lounges – Including SkyTeam’s Newest Lounge in Istanbul

SkyTeam will open the door to its seventh branded lounge in August, adding to more than 750 member and affiliated lounges worldwide.
Date 29 May 2019

The lounge at Istanbul New Airport is set to make a big impression before guests even step over the threshold thanks to its statement reception area, LED lighting, custom-made furniture and moss walls.

Like all of our branded lounges, it will offer Elite Plus, First and Business Class customers an oasis of calm within the bustle of a busy airport.

Guests will be able to catch up on work with complimentary WI-FI, freshen up in the shower facilities or simply sit back and relax.

The lounge will serve locally-sourced food and drink, such as freshly cooked pide (Turkish pizza), mezze, traditional Turkish tea and coffee, and wine from the surrounding vineyards, as well as European dishes, snacks, and soft drinks.

Customers tell us our lounges are one of their favorite SkyTeam touchpoints. This is why we continue to evolve our current lounges and look for new opportunities in key airports around the world.
