Welcome to British Airways Lounge, offering a comfortable escape from the busy terminal. The lounge features contemporary design with comfortable seating areas perfect for relaxation before your flight

About this lounge

The British Airways Lounge at Johannesburg airport was remodeled late 2019. The former separate Club and First lounges were combined into a single 86,00 square foot (880 square meter) space, which can accommodate close to 250 guests. The design bears the DNA of British Airways’ latest lineage of lounges, with a striking resemblance to the airline’s San Francisco club. The space boasts hardwood floors, Earth tones, dim lighting, and smooth curves—a resolutely conservative but elegant ensemble
