Emirates has reopened its lounge at Düsseldorf Airport (DUS) after a seven-week refurbishment.
The 700-sqm lounge now features completely new,
cream-colored leather seats, furniture and carpets, as well as new
lighting and kitchen equipment.
With the capacity to accommodate 115 guests,
Emirates’ Lounge is the single largest airline lounge at
Dusseldorf Airport and one of the largest Emirates Lounges in
continental Europe.
Open daily
three hours before the departure of flights EK56 and EK58, guests
can enjoy a wide selection of hot and cold dishes that change
monthly from the renowned caterer DO & CO, including numerous
vegan options, a free bar service and private shower rooms.

Access
to the lounges is available to all Emirates First Class and
Business Class passengers as well as Skywards members with
Platinum or Gold status traveling in Economy Class. Access is also
available for a fee.
The newly designed facilities in Düsseldorf
conclude a comprehensive investment made by the airline in Germany
within the past five months, with Emirates’ airport lounges in
Frankfurt, Hamburg and Munich also having been modernized.
“We are constantly looking for ways to further
enhance the travel experience for our valued customers both in the
air and on ground, Emirates’ exclusive airport lounges are an
integral part of our ‘Fly better’ brand promise,” saidVolker
Greiner, Emirates Vice President North & Central Europe. “The
investment in the refurbishment of all lounges demonstrates our
commitment to our passengers and to our airport partners in
Germany.”
The airline’s lounge at Düsseldorf Airport was
officially opened in May 2009 as the 20th Emirates Lounge
worldwide. The Dubai-based airline has been flying from Düsseldorf since 2001 and
its two daily scheduled flights are operated with a mix of Airbus A380 and
Boeing 777-300ER aircraft connecting the North Rhine-Westphalia
region to over 140 destinations
worldwide via the DXB hub.
