Emirates lounge for DUS

Emirates will open an own lounge in DUS in march 2009 (date not official).

After FRA and MUC it will be EK's third lounge in Germany.

Additional outstations that will have the Emirates lounge soon include Mumbai (BOM), Manchester (MAN) and Beijing (PEK).

Do you know the opening date for the MAN lounge?

I got told Summer 2009, but that only narrows it down to about 6 months

Cheers,
Rick

The shared lounge in DUS was not bad at all, at least not when I took the evening flights .. How does the DUS lounge compared to other multi-usage lounges in Germany?

Thanks Emirates777.

I believe the new lounge is in T1. So, EK will be moving from T2 to T1 again in the near future. I'll keep an eye out for when this is happening.

Cheers,
Rick

The new EK lounge will have more floor space the "Open Sky" lounge that is shared by all other airlines in C-pier.

Good. The Mumbai one is long overdue. The current lounge they use in Mumbai is awful!

The food in the Munich lounge is SUPERB!!! - this was in 2007, though.

DYKWIA 'wrote'

Since when did MAN have a 6 months summer

Seriously i might change my UK departure point if this lounge is opening soon. I normally fly ABZ-BHX-DXB because I like BHX better than T2 in MAN, but the shared lounge in BHX is really disappointing.

Hope the new lounge is as good as the lounge in BKK, that is better than all the lounges in DXB IMHO.

Best Regards

Pity I can't afford to use EK much these days!

Don't have specific dates around opening of DUS lounge.

Separately, Emirates will also be opening its dedicated lounge in Johannesburg this year.
