Airport Dimensions (a Platinum Sponsor of FTE APEX Asia Expo, 8-9 November 2023, Singapore) is working with its joint venture partner Swissport to open two new lounges at London Luton Airport (LLA) in 2024. The lounges will be operated by No1 Lounges.
The new spaces will open under two different brands under the No1 Lounges portfolio – My Lounge and No1 Lounge. They are being developed to the latest specifications and will feature a variety of amenities to suit different travellers’ needs. Both will be accessible to Priority Pass and LoungeKey cardholders.
“The opening of these two new lounges will provide an additional dimension to the simple, friendly passenger experience that we offer at London Luton Airport, providing the perfect start to any leisure or business trip,” said Jonathan Rayner, Chief Commercial Officer, London Luton Airport. “This significant investment from No1 Lounges demonstrates our continued commitment to providing first-class passenger facilities and an even greater choice for our passengers.”
The My Lounge space will offer a relaxing environment for all types of traveller to unwind before they fly. With a capacity of 155 seats, the lounge design is inspired by loft-style living and will offer views of the main terminal. Travellers will also be able to enjoy a self-service pantry with premium beers, wines, and spirits. The space will replace the current Aspire Lounge and will be completely refurbished in due course.
The No1 Lounge, the hero lounge brand in the portfolio, will have capacity for 70 travellers and offer a more premium experience, in a variety of different seating to emphasise the stylish pre-departure experience with flexibility and choice. Visitors will be able to choose from freshly prepared hot and cold dishes served in buffet style, along with an extensive range of premium beverages available from a fully tended bar.
“Our ongoing partnership with Swissport is going from strength to strength,” said Errol McGlothan, President of Airport Dimensions, EMEA & APAC. “By coming together, we’ve been able to create two new superb quality spaces at one of the UK’s busiest airports, London Luton. We’re on a journey of growth and will continue expanding our network to offer greater choice and differentiated experiences to travellers. It’s a privilege to be trusted to develop and operate these spaces at LLA and we’re confident guests will love them as much as we do.”
