The airport lounges market is expected to witness significant growth in the years to come.

Airport Lounges Market Size Summary

The Airport Lounges market is projected to experience growth, driven by the increasing passenger traffic and the construction of new airports and expansion of existing ones. As airports globally recover from the impact of the pandemic, they are adding new lounges and upgrading existing ones to attract more passengers, thereby driving market growth. Credit and debit card companies are also contributing to this growth by introducing lounge service programs, which allow passengers to access lounge services at partnered airports and lounges. On a regional level, North America currently dominates the Airport Lounges market, with the United Arab Emirates boasting the most premium class lounges.

Collaborations and the introduction of new concept lounges are expected to drive the market further.
