Airline passengers
travelling from London City Airport can now share in the 'private
jet experience'.
The airport's new
Business Lounge, which opened on Monday (20 March), offers a premium
customer experience for all passengers at a reasonable cost of £35
per person.
Housed in a newly
transformed area of the airport’s Private Jet Centre and accessible
from the main terminal via a private taxi shuttle, the Lounge offers
a discreet, quiet atmosphere with complimentary cold food, snacks,
and alcoholic beverages.
The stylish interior
surroundings are designed with comfort and convenience in mind, with
hand-made furniture, a flat screen TV, and charging points. Free
hi-speed Wi-Fi, ensures passengers can catch up on emails and stay
connected before they depart to one of the 45 destinations served by
London City Airport.
Chris
Clayton, London City
Airport Jet Centre Customer Service Manager said, “London City
Airport’s new Business Lounge is the perfect option for passengers
who want first class hospitality, comfort and privacy.
“Our priority is our
passengers and the team will always go the extra mile to ensure they
have what they need to keep their airport experience memorable and
stress-free.”
Located less than 5
minutes from the terminal, passengers are required to check-in any
hold luggage before taking the complimentary private shuttle to the
Private Jet Centre with their boarding pass. When the time comes for
departure, a minimum of 30 minutes is required to allow sufficient
time for passengers to return to the terminal on the private
transfer, pass through airport security, and board their flight. The
Business Lounge covers an area of 50 square metres and is capable of
accommodating up to thirty passengers. Shower facilities are
available, along with a meeting room space available for hire.
The new Lounge
compliments the existing First Class Lounge option, which includes
the added convenience of easy baggage drop and discreet security
clearance with no queues, before a transfer to the steps of the
aircraft. The First Class Lounge is £95 per person and is available
for seven of the airport’s eleven airlines. |
