Synthesis of Information Related to Airport Practices. Topic S01-32. State of Airport Lounges

The airport lounge landscape has undergone a transformation in recent years, deviating from the traditional model where airlines exclusively operated lounges for their elite passengers. The emergence of common-use, credit card, and commercial lounges has introduced a diverse array of service providers catering to a broader customer base. This shift raises questions regarding the current state of airport lounges, the factors driving these changes, and the resulting implications on airport commercial revenues. The objective of this synthesis is to document the current state of common-use, credit card, and commercial airport lounges, and their impact on airport commercial revenues.
