This is the state of some of the chairs on the upper level, disgraceful eh? The lower level was busy but looked acceptable. I think Emirates should be made aware of this but one would think that perhaps their staff would be checking it every now and then. |

I don’t Tweet/Facebook etc., but I have just sent an email to customer services. I didn’t think to mention it at the gate. In any case the boarding was a bit chaotic. |
Ah, I sent my email to [email protected] and it has come back as undeliverable even though I found that address on the Emirates website. Not terribly computer literate if anyone could make a simple suggestion please. |

I have just done it on the feedback form although there was no facility to upload pics. I did tell them however that they could see them on here. |
I was there in September and I asked to take photos for a review and was told please don't take of the furniture we are in the process of renovating them

I am from Durban and regularly use this lounge
I too agree it's s very poor. You should tweet the king shaka airport account too. The problem is there only 1-3 international flights a day from Durban so there is not much motivation for them to improve it untill there is more flights The lounge also gets very cramped but i guess better than sitting on the floor outside |
Is this the same lounge as BA are using?
If so, I'm surprised it's not caused the BA share price to drop! |
BA use the Slow Lounge which is very nice. There is simply no comparison. |

Ah, yes, I forgot BA have a "domestic" operation in SA. I was referring to the direct DUR-LHR flights on BA.

I received a fairly long, personal email from Emirates apologising and stating that the matter is being looked into although they have no jurisdiction over the facilities as they are managed by a third party. Their intention is to open dedicated lounges across the network.
