(PRESS RELEASE) Dubai, UAE, 2025-Feb-1 — /Travel PR News/ —Emirates has officially unveiled its newly refurbished and relocated lounge at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport (SAT-1), underlining its commitment to the growing demand for premium travel in and out of Thailand.
The airline’s latest investment, valued at $5 million, has transformed the 1,454 square meter space into a premium oasis for travelers. With a capacity to host 250 guests, the lounge is designed to accommodate the airline’s dual A380 departures from Bangkok, making it the largest international lounge in the Emirates network outside its home base. This marks another milestone for Emirates in providing world-class amenities and service to its customers.
The expansive lounge offers an elevated experience for Emirates’ First and Business Class passengers, as well as Skywards members, with upscale furnishings, an elegant dining experience, and a tranquil environment. Premium passengers can enjoy a wide selection of amenities, including luxurious shower spas, free Wi-Fi, and a diverse array of food and beverages, featuring both local Thai delicacies and international cuisine. Classic Thai desserts add a unique local touch to the offerings, making the pre-flight experience truly special.
Emirates’ lounge is conveniently located on the fourth floor of SAT-1, only a five-minute walk to the boarding gates. As one of the first airlines to move to this newly constructed terminal, Emirates further enhances the overall customer experience with modern and efficient facilities for travelers flying from Bangkok.
Supporting Thailand’s Tourism and Business Growth
Emirates’ expansion in Bangkok is a testament to its dedication to supporting the thriving tourism and business sectors in Thailand. The airline is set to celebrate 35 years of operations in the country, with five daily flights between Dubai and Bangkok, including a mix of Airbus A380s and Boeing 777s. Additionally, Emirates operates double daily flights to Phuket and a daily non-stop service between Bangkok and Hong Kong.
The airline’s significant investment in premium cabin capacity—over 870 First and Business Class seats daily—has reinforced its position as a leading carrier in the luxury travel sector to and from Bangkok. The increasing demand for high-end travel has driven the expansion of Emirates’ lounge network to provide a seamless, luxurious experience for its passengers.
