Global business class airport lounges that redefine travel

- KHURSHEED MISTRY

On international flights, it is almost impossible to avoid long waits and lines at the airport. For business travellers who travel frequently, this can be uncomfortable and tiring especially since the trip would entail long and hectic working hours after reaching the destination. Investing in a business class ticket not only makes for a comfortable and refreshing flight but also gives access to the business lounges at the airports which offer a quiet, private, and cosy space to relax, rest or work. The lounges are well equipped with internet access, fax, conference rooms, charging stations, etc which allow business travellers to stay connected to colleagues or business associates. The staff working in the lounges are courteous, well trained and offer personalised attention.

In recent times, business lounges have begun giving importance to their food and drink menus which ensures guests the convenience of enjoying a range of complimentary meals, snacks, and drinks. This helps in saving expenses on inflated airport meals and drinks otherwise. Some lounges also offer shower facilities or capsules for a much-needed nap. In this feature, we highlight some of the best global business lounges which offer luxury services and facilities for discerning business travellers.
