Emirates to put up a luxurious lounge at Mumbai airport

Mumbai: Dubai government-owned Emirates Airline is set to put up a luxurious lounge within the premises of the Mumbai International Airport to cater to its premium travellers.
"We have got 700 square metre space at the airport to cater to our first class and business class passengers," Emirates Airline's Senior Vice President (Commercial Operations), West Asia & Indian Ocean, Salem Obaidalla told PTI.
Emirates, which flies four flights a day from Mumbai, has recently launched chauffeur-driven service for its first class and business class passengers arriving and departing from Mumbai. The company would soon extend the service to Delhi as well.
While declining to give the investment the carrier needs to make to put up the facility, Obaidalla said the lounge would be "a good, excellent and nice one".
Emirates Airline intends to grow in India by adding new flights and connecting new destinations apart from consolidating its presence in the existing cities.
