I saw this is in Concourse B... does anyone know if the Business Lounges in A and C also hold the four types of Moët champagne? Not sure when will be connecting next time :)

No, unfortunately not. The standard champagne in all the J lounges is the Moet Brut. In the Champagne Bar at the B lounge they also serve the nectar, rose and some vintage version I forget the name of

Thanks for the info! I will certainly do my best to visit the B business lounge in my next trip.

This said, it is perplexing that the best champagne is served in Dubai terminal 3 in the Business Class Lounge (concourse B), not in the First Class Lounge... I think the vintage that you mention is about double price of the regular one (about 70 euros or so the bottle), but I could be wrong.

All EK flights leave from T3. But there are 3 ‘concourses’, A, B and C. They all have their own lounges (J and F), but you are not restricted to the lounge in the concourse your flight departs from. So - time permitting - you can hop over to the B lounge and the Moët bar in the B J lounge. Turn right after entering and walk all the way to the end. There are also signs showing the way.

All EK flights depart Terminal 3. At DXB the terminals are best used to describe the landside check-in and baggage reclaim/arrivals areas, not the airside areas. Terminal 3 feeds into 3 concourses, A, B and C. Of these C is the oldest and A is the newest (and requires a short train ride to reach). Each concourse has a J and an F lounge (with C having an additional combined lounge at the far end near C7). The A Lounges are the biggest and most spacious, but the food selection, champagne bar and free costa coffee make B a fair choice depending on what you're looking for. A has the best showers. C has beer on tap and the hidden fridge with all the nice wine.

The F lounges have a nicer champagne (no idea which, I never get to go there :D). The Moet vintage isn't a typical vintage, it's something grand or something with a big year number printed on a black label, either way the champagne bar is a great place to hang out, and generally much quieter than the rest of the lounge. There's also a full bar as well as some Mediterranean appetizers and some canapes

From recent experience, I think B J Moët lounge is the best Champagne in any lounges. I wonder if even iO have to slum it?

Thanks, sorry I got confused, it also looks like my flight leaves from B - so the J lounge there is where i'll be -

No way to tell until the gate for your exact flight is published. They don't use the same gates or concourses every day

That's a new one on me. Where would I find it?

I usually head upstairs but could easily stop off on the way if required.

I have been in the First Lounges and I only found Moët being served... has anyone seen anything else being offered? If I am right, then the Business Lounge B has the best champagne offer :) but I could be wrong...?

Best summary ever of the different lounges in Terminal 3! :) this should go to the dashboard somewhere...

In the far right corner of the bar area. TBH it's been a few years since I used it, and I didn't pay attention to whether it was still there on my recent visit, so perhaps it no longer is, but for years there was a Heineken tap that you could serve yourself with
