About BHX

Birmingham Airport (BHX) lies about six miles east of the city, beside the NEC and Birmingham International railway station; the free Air-Rail Link shuttle carries passengers from the platforms to the terminal in a couple of minutes. Departures run through one building, so there is no terminal to choose. Once through passport control and security, everyone walks through World Duty Free into the main departure lounge, which then branches to Gates 1–20 on one side and the International Pier on the other. Most traffic is short-haul and leisure, with carriers such as Jet2, TUI and Ryanair, while Emirates provides the long-haul link to Dubai. Allow extra walking time for the International Pier gates. The main lounge change for 2026 is on the Aspire side: the north-side Aspire Lounge closed early in the year.

How we compile this guide

Sourced, never sponsored.

This guide is compiled from airline, alliance and lounge-operator sources plus published access rules from Priority Pass and DragonPass — we haven't independently visited every Birmingham Airport lounge yet. Nothing here is a paid placement, and the guide is updated as lounges open, close, renovate or change access policies. Read more about how we verify lounge data.
