Germany's first Emirates lounge — First and Business Class passengers and Skywards members.

About this lounge

The Emirates Lounge at Munich Airport opened in June 2006 and was the first Emirates lounge in Germany. Enlarged in August 2012, it now occupies around 965 sq.m. and offers a spacious branded experience for Emirates First and Business Class passengers and eligible Skywards members departing Munich. The lounge is fitted with comfortable leather armchairs and a dining room that seats up to 205 guests, with a hot and cold buffet and a full bar pouring soft drinks, wines, beers and spirits. As an airline lounge, access follows your Emirates ticket or Skywards tier rather than a paid membership or alliance, making it the natural choice for travellers flying Emirates out of MUC.
