Birmingham's only airline lounge — 7,000 sq ft of luxury leather seating for Emirates premium flyers.
The Emirates Lounge at Birmingham Airport is the airport's only branded-airline lounge, sitting airside in the single Main Terminal near gates 40-68. It spans 7,000 sq ft with luxury leather seating for up to 117 guests, giving Emirates customers a dedicated space ahead of their flight rather than relying on the independent lounges. It serves Emirates First and Business Class passengers and eligible Skywards members flying Emirates out of Birmingham. As an airline-operated lounge it follows the Emirates template, offering a comfortable, branded environment to relax in before the long-haul departure — the most consistent airline experience at BHX, where every other lounge is independent.
