Emirates opened its 41st lounge at Boston Logan International Airport, in a bid to extend its global network of dedicated airport lounges. It is aimed at providing premium flyers with a seamless and enjoyable journey from start to finish.
The Emirates Lounge, which marked a soft opening in April 2017, is now open to Emirates’ First Class and Business Class customers as well as Platinum and Gold members of Skywards, the airline’s frequent flyer programme. Passengers in Boston will enjoy a premium offering at every point in their journey, beginning and ending with Emirates’ complimentary Chauffeur drive, a comfortable lounge experience and award-winning in-flight products and services.
Located on the upper level of Terminal E, the lounge will overlook gate E-11. The new Emirates Lounge will offer seating for up to 123 customers, covering an area of 7481 square feet (695 square metre). The lounge will provide premium passengers with a relaxing ambiance and luxurious facilities, which include an exciting view of airport activity, LED TVs, comfortable leather armchairs, formal and relaxed seating, bespoke artwork and a prayer room.
The lounge will feature a dedicated dining area with a choice of bar seating. Also, while in the lounge, customers can enjoy shower facilities, a fully equipped business centre with state-of-the-art touch screen workstations and complimentary Wi-Fi service.
“Emirates’ lounges are an integral part of Emirates’ product and service offerings for our premium and loyal customers,” said Mohammed H Mattar, Emirates’ Divisional Senior Vice President Airport Services. “This is Emirates’ fourth dedicated airport lounge in the U.S. and a demonstration of our ongoing commitment to serving passengers travelling through our U.S. gateways.”
Passengers wishing to travel beyond Boston to other destinations in North America can take advantage of Emirates’ interline partnership with JetBlue Airways (B6) that allows increased connectivity options between Boston and a number of other U.S. cities. The codeshare agreement with JetBlue allows customers of both the airlines to enjoy the convenience of a single combined ticket on selected routes, including one-stop check-in and baggage transfer. Emirates offers First Class and Business Class customers with private, chauffeur-driven service to and from Boston Logan International Airport.
