Dubai International Business Class Lounge
Dubai International Airport - Terminal 2
Since our gate was at the other end of the airport, we eventually headed up to the contract “Dubai International Business Class Lounge”. Described as “the general lounge for airlines that do not have their own dedicated lounges, as well as approved card holders,” we used a lounge invitation issued at check in to check out the place. It’s located next to Gate C8. It actually wasn’t that bad and was quite spacious.
It had a better food and beverage offering than the Lufthansa lounge. I again didn’t partake but it looked all right.
At about T-35 (the new adjusted time) we left the lounge and wandered over to Gate C1 where more apathetic treatment continued...

You may indeed be correct. It's a rather large space for a contract lounge. It seems logical that someone would have taken it over, with minimal changes.
Thank you alexisonsmith.
I would have to agree. It's a terrific country away from the regular tourist trails. It would be high on my list for a further return trip.
I loved every minute of it. Mrs WT73 was hoping for beaches like the Maldives but alas, you can't have sand like that everywhere.
