Etihad's flagship First lounge at AUH — a full-service restaurant and a full bar.

About this lounge

The Etihad Airways First Class Lounge is the flagship lounge at Abu Dhabi International, Etihad's home airport, reserved for Etihad First Class customers and Etihad Guest Platinum members. It's designed as an exclusive sanctuary, with a range of thoughtful, elevated amenities and luxurious decor that sets it apart from the airport's alliance and independent lounges. Rather than a self-service buffet, the lounge offers a complimentary full-service restaurant, so you can sit down to a proper meal before your flight, and a complimentary full bar covers a full range of drinks. A variety of secluded seating areas run through the space, giving you the choice between settling in to work in privacy or relaxing in a quiet corner before boarding. The overall feel is calm, premium and personal — the most polished lounge experience at AUH for those who qualify. If you're flying Etihad First Class out of Abu Dhabi, or hold Etihad Guest Platinum, this is the standout option at the airport.
