Emirates has unveiled its newly refurbished lounge at Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi Airport, located in the Satellite 1 Terminal (SAT-1). This new facility is the airline's largest international lounge outside of Dubai, underscoring Thailand's significance as a major market within Emirates' global network.

The lounge spans 1,454 square meters and can accommodate up to 250 guests. It supports premium passengers traveling on two simultaneous A380 departures. The $5 million investment offers First and Business Class passengers, along with Skywards members, a sophisticated pre-flight experience. Amenities include upscale furnishings, elegant dining options featuring local and international cuisine, shower spas, complimentary Wi-Fi, and classic Thai desserts.

Emirates is among the first airlines to operate from SAT-1 Terminal. The lounge is conveniently situated just five minutes from the boarding gates for any of Emirates’ six daily flights from Bangkok.
