EasyJet will open its first airport lounge, at London Gatwick’s North terminal, on 21 October.

The lounge will be open to both business and leisure travellers, including children.

Places can be reserved in advance through Holiday Extras or passengers can simply book in on the day of travel.

One, two and three-hour packages are available, with prices starting at £18.50 per person.

The Gateway lounge will offer spaces to eat, drink, work and play and the entry fee includes complementary hot and cold meals and drinks. There’s also free wifi, charging points, a TV den and games room.

Rachael Smith, Commercial Proposition & Innovation Director for easyJet, said: “We are delighted to be launching our very first airport lounge in partnership with No1 Lounges to serve passengers at London Gatwick, where we’re proud to be the largest airline.  

“The launch is timely as we are seeing the recovery begin in the UK, not only for leisure travel where winter sun destinations are proving popular once again, but for business travellers too, who are returning in their biggest numbers since before the pandemic.”
