Qatar Airways has officially opened its new premium lounge within Terminal 1 at Paris Charles de Gaulle airport, its third internationally after London Heathrow and Dubai.
The lounge can hold up to 200 passengers and features two terraces (one for smoking) along with a welcome lounge around a fountain, a separate bar/dining area, lounge seating, showers, a prayer room, magazine rack and business centre.
?We are well advanced with the construction of two more lounges ? Beirut and Bangkok ? and we?re in negotiations with seven other airports to have space where we have more than one flight a day,? said CEO Akbar Al Baker.
?London Heathrow is also expanding, just below our lounge on another floor ? we?re now busy designing it. Heathrow has to do certain modifications. It will be a lot bigger than here [Paris] ? keep in mind we have six flights a day at London.?Bangkok will be the same size as London ? the benefit of Bangkok is we don?t have flights that overlap each other, which happens in London.?Qatar Airways also today confirmed launch details for its new Las Vegas route, with a four times-weekly service starting on January 8, 2018.
