An oasis of calm, the lounge is the perfect place to catch up with work, call home, or simply do nothing at all. It offers locally-sourced dishes and drinks, alongside complimentary Wi-Fi and other amenities designed to help customers relax before flights.

SkyTeam’s Istanbul lounge is available to Elite Plus, First and Business Class customers. Here’s just some of what can be experienced inside:

Interiors

The unique decor makes an instant impression; a statement reception area, LED lighting, custom-made furniture and living moss walls. The 582 m2 lounge, with more than 145 seats, never feels crowded – even at its busiest.

Food & Drink

Sample authentic Turkish cuisine such as freshly cooked pide (Turkish pizza) prepared on-demand at the live cooking station, mezze and traditional tea and coffee are served. The menu includes European dishes, as well as a selection of snacks. Spirits, soft drinks and wine sourced from local Turkish vineyards are also available.

Facilities

The lounge is open 24 hours a day, ready for passengers at any stage of their journey – from taking a refreshing shower to simply recharging.

Location

Located in the West Wing on Level H, the lounge has an elevated position; it is a refuge from the bustle of the airport.
