Stylish design and extra space will appeal to business and leisure passengers
2012-12-06 — /travelprnews.com/ — Work is underway on a £600,000 project to create a new lounge at Bristol Airport. Bearing the Aspire by Servisair brand, the new facility will see the current executive lounge relocated, resulting in a 50 per cent increase in space.
The new Aspire by Servisair lounge will offer an improved product for business and leisure passengers when it opens in spring 2013, with greater levels of comfort in a stylishly designed environment. The new location includes kitchen facilities, meaning that the complimentary menu will include hot food as well as snacks and premium brand drinks.
A series of distinct zones will cater for the differing requirements of business and leisure passengers, depending on whether they want to do some last minute work before boarding or relax ahead of a holiday flight. Families will also be welcome, with a new entertainment area complete with personal televisions. Specially designed side tables provide charging facilities for laptops, iPads or games consoles and the lounge will include toilet facilities.
The lounge development is part of an overall strategy to enhance facilities for business passengers using Bristol Airport. Recent improvements include an extension to the Premier Car Park, an enhanced Fast Track security product and improvements to the boarding gate used by full-service scheduled airlines.
Kate Ridgers, Commercial Development Manager at Bristol Airport, said:
“Once completed, the new lounge will significantly enhance the passenger experience at Bristol Airport, enabling business passengers to make best use of their time in the terminal and giving holidaymakers the opportunity to start their break in style. We are confident it will prove popular when it opens next spring.”
Shaun Weston, Travel Services Director at Servisair, commented:
“We have long wanted to improve our lounge facility at Bristol Airport and give customers a much enhanced experience. This new space has not only given us the opportunity to add more room but has also allowed us to further expand our Aspire by Servisair brand concept, vastly improving the product that we offer guests through an enhanced food offering and other improvements.”
Entry to the new Aspire by Servisair lounge will start from as little as £17.49 per adult and £9.99 for children when booked online. Walk up prices on the day will be £19.95 per adult and £10.95 for children.
Passengers will also be able to take advantage of Servisair’s LoungeMiles™ rewards scheme which entitles customers to one free lounge pass or a £5 gift voucher from retailers such as Boots, John Lewis or M&S, for every five visits made.
