Emirates First Class Lounges in Dubai undergo minor updates

The Emirates First Class Lounges at Dubai International Airport (DXB) in Concourses A and B maintain their established layouts, though recent observations note improvements in specific services. In Concourse B, the coffee service has been upgraded to include barista-prepared options, such as flat whites, alongside a Costa Coffee outlet.

The Concourse A lounge remains the larger flagship facility, offering extensive amenities including duty-free shops, a wine shop, and a children’s playroom. Both lounges operate 24/7 and are located airside beyond security and passport control.

Access is provided to Emirates First Class passengers, Emirates Skywards Platinum members, and certain Qantas Platinum members on eligible flights. Paid entry is available for non-eligible passengers, subject to availability and a four-hour time limit. Upgrade fees from the business-class lounge are $150 for Skywards members or $175 for nonmembers, while standalone entry is $250 for Skywards members or $300 for nonmembers, with all prices subject to a 5% UAE VAT.
