The EK website continues to indicate that only its T3B F and J lounges are open. I note from very recent posts here that the T3A F lounge has in fact reopened. I wonder if anyone can report whether any of the other four EK lounges (J in T3A plus the three in T3C) have also reopened, or are scheduled to open soon, despite the absence of public announcements.

We're opening selected worldwide lounges once more. Our Business Class Lounge on Concourse B at Dubai International airport is open with our full service offering, and we have a private lounge experience available for our customers flying in First Class.

Data point: The J lounge in Concourse A was open and seemed to me moderately busy yesterday when I was there 05:40-06:25. No queue for the 'proper' shower suites and – very much a personal view – I found it worth the time & effort to go to this lounge despite my arriving and departing flights both using the B gates.
Thanks again to other posters here who provided the timely steer that the Concourse A lounges had reopened.

A and B F lounges are open.
Fine dining in A is open as well as the cigar room and showers.
We landed in B and was escorted to A via the first class buggy. The guide also escorted us to transit security and helped with the check-in process at the first class A lounge. He did say that they are short staffed and provide the buddy and escort service for passengers that require terminal changes. Overall, a seamless experience.

Was so happy that the A lounge reopened this past week - although only seems like the left half. You still have to leave to go to the spa - but the showers, quiet sleeping room and dining area were open.
Good to board from the lounge as well

Morning all (and apols if posted in wrong thread) but what is the status of LHR EK F lounge just now? Read previous that we were pretty much back to normal but that was pre-omni.
If anyone has time give a quick heads up on EK F service in lounge that would be very useful to me and I imagine others as well.
Many thanks

I feel it's like a refresher course I'm on
And just to ask, the on-board experience you would say is back to normal or any delta it's wise to be aware of?
Thanks
