Bangladesh International Airport Lounges

What to Expect From an Airport Lounge in Bangladesh?

Bangladesh is home to three international airports, as well as four domestic airports.

If you are planning a visit to Bangladesh any time soon, ensure that you make the most of it by booking an airport lounge through Enjoy Travel for the smoothest experience.

Why Book an Airport Lounge in Bangladesh?

Comfort and Convenience

Bangladesh serves as a popular hub for flights in and out of Asia, with its airports being popular destinations for connecting flights. However, Bangladesh also receives many visitors every year, operating long-haul flights from places as far afield as the UK and the USA – so comfort prior to these flights is essential.

Relax While You Recharge

It’s so important to take some proper ‘me time’ when in an airport lounge. You should make sure that you’re wholly relaxed and recharged before boarding your flight, regardless if it’s a quick hour over the Bangladeshi border to India, or whether you’re flying overnight to somewhere else exotic.

And as well as recharging your own batteries, airport lounges are great places to charge the batteries of all of your electronic devices, too.

Work from the Airport Lounge

Most airport lounges make for excellent workspaces – good, strong and safe internet connections are a must, so if you are travelling on business, you may want to use an airport lounge as a place to get some work done.

Many airport lounges also have dedicated working spaces such as conference rooms that are available for hire for an additional fee, too.

Air Miles or Credit Card?

If you travel regularly, then paying for an airport lounge using air miles is a fantastic way to save some cash and still reap the benefits of an airport lounge.

However, many people do not have access to air miles, so another good method to pay for an airport lounge is to use a credit card. By doing this, you also save the financial hit upfront, as the buy now, pay later nature of credit cards means that you can enjoy the airport lounge and not have to pay for it until a more convenient time. Plus, if you should need a refund for any reason, then credit card transactions are much easier to refund than transactions by debit card or cash.

Food and Drink

The majority of Bangladeshi airport lounges also come with complimentary food and drink.

Most of the food is centred around Bangladeshi and other South Asian favourites, so you can expect lots of curries, rice, poppadoms, dahl, bhajis and more. However, there is plenty in the way of fresh fruits, salads and sandwiches, too.

Drinks such as tea, coffee and other soft drinks are also free, although you may have to pay extra for alcoholic beverages, especially if they are imported or luxury drinks like champagne.

Free WiFi

WiFi is also included in most Bangladeshi airport lounges. Not only is this a great opportunity to catch up on any work or emails, but it’s also an excellent chance to keep in touch with friends and family back home via social media apps.

Amenities and Facilities

You can expect world-class hospitality in Bangladeshi airport lounges, and alongisde complimentary WiFi, food, drinks and more, there are occasionally extra amenities and facilities, such as massage chairs, showers and toilet facilities.

Family Friendly

The majority of Bangladeshi airport lounges are family-friendly, but even so, it is worth checking if this is the case before you book, particularly if you are travelling with small children. For instance, some first-class and business-class lounges are for adults only.

Flight Information

While most airport lounges in Bangladesh have live flight information screens within them, some do not. If this is the case, do not panic. Simply ask someone at the reception desk where the nearest flight information screen is and they will point you in the right direction.

How to Make the Most of Your Lounge Experience

It is a privilege to be able to use an airport lounge, so here are a few ways in which you can make the most of it:

• Drink responsibly: We’re all for having fun, and for many people, the holiday starts at the airport. However, be careful how much you drink – airlines reserve the right to deny boarding to passengers they deem too intoxicated. Don’t ruin the airport lounge experience for yourself or anyone else.
• Know what’s there: Make sure you have a good idea of what to expect at the airport lounge when you arrive – we recommend checking the menus online as well as the list of amenities.
• Check your eligibility: As some Bangladeshi airport lounges are reserved for first or business-class customers only, while others are adult-only, make sure you’re aware of this before booking.

What are the Rules and Restrictions of Airport Lounges in Bangladesh?

Some airport lounges in Bangladesh may be adult-only, so if you are travelling with young children make sure that you check in advance so as to avoid disappointment upon arrival at the airport lounge.

Some airport lounges also have certain dress codes. While this is generally reserved for first or business-class customers, it is always worth taking note of. There is nothing wrong with bringing something more comfortable to change into just before your flight if the airport lounge you have booked requires formal or smart attire.

Finally, large groups – even family groups – may not be granted access to airport lounges in Bangladesh. You should always check in advance on the maximum group size before booking an airport lounge.

How to Stay Safe and Healthy in Bangladeshi Airport Lounges

Adhere to Health & Safety Measures

Most of the restrictions surrounding COVID-19 such as the mandatory wearing of facemasks in airports have since been lifted. While no longer compulsory, if you would feel more comfortable wearing a mask, then feel free to.

Keep Your Belongings Secure and Organised

It is imperative that you keep any bags or belongings close by, ideally within arm’s length. This is to avoid any security issues around abandoned bags in airports, as well as the fact it means that as long as your belongings are nearby, you will decrease your chances of becoming a victim of theft.

Avoid Allergens and Contaminants

If you have any uncertainties about how food in the airport lounge is handled or prepared, especially if you suffer from any allergies, then you should check with a member of the catering staff. If you are still unsure, then it is best to stick to pre-packaged food and drinks which clearly display nutritional information and allergens.

Bring Your Own Travel Essentials and Accessories

Bringing your own home comforts is an excellent way to enhance your airport lounge experience in Bangladesh. Perhaps you have a favourite jumper, or travel pillow which will make your journey even more comfortable. In addition, plug adapters and chargers are worth bringing along so that your devices can stay fully charged.

Make Friends and Connections

Airport lounges are great places to make friends and connections. Many travellers might be in the same situation as yourself, such as being a solo traveller or having visited Bangladesh for the first time. In addition, some other passengers may be on your flight, or might even be staying in the same accommodation as you. Spending time to get to know your fellow passengers is a good way to pass the time, too.
