Baghdad's home-carrier business lounge — a calm Middle Eastern retreat for SkyTeam and premium-cabin flyers.

About this lounge

The Iraqi Airways Business Class Lounge is Baghdad International's home-carrier lounge, located between the Naynawa and Babel terminals. Access is for business- and first-class passengers and SkyTeam Elite Plus status holders. The decor features elegant Middle Eastern touches — warm lighting, a muted palette and subtle Arabic patterns — with comfortable seating arranged in clusters for a degree of privacy. The atmosphere is generally quiet, with soft background music, though the seating areas near the food stations can get moderately busy during flight peaks. Amenities include Wi-Fi, a cold-food selection, soft drinks, newspapers and magazines, plus a spa service. It's a sophisticated, restful place to wait for premium-cabin and eligible SkyTeam travellers, rather than a large amenity-heavy contract lounge.
