Air India's international flagship lounge at Delhi — T3 mezzanine, for Business and Star Alliance flyers.

About this lounge

The Air India Maharaja International Business Class Lounge sits on the mezzanine level of Terminal 3 (International) at Delhi's Indira Gandhi International Airport. As Air India's flagship international lounge at its main hub, it welcomes elite and premium passengers flying with Air India and Star Alliance partner airlines — access following your cabin and frequent-flyer tier rather than a paid membership. Expect a calm, well-appointed environment with food and drinks, seating to relax or work, and a quieter space than the busy international concourse. For Business Class and eligible Star Alliance travellers departing internationally from Terminal 3, it's the natural home-carrier choice before a long-haul flight.
