NETHERLANDS. Amsterdam Airport Schiphol is redeveloping the Lounge 2 airside environment with an array of luxury openings.
The space is being redesigned with an enhanced presence for luxury brands and F&B concepts. The renovation is part of a wider-scale programme to elevate the retail offer at the Dutch gateway.
On 18 March, Roman luxury house Bvlgari opened its doors, leading the luxury offer alongside French haute couture brand Louis Vuitton.
As reported, Amsterdam Airport Schiphol recently opened renovated outlets in Lounge 1. Highlights include Capi, We Love Amsterdam, Finefoods and Let’s Play from retail partner World of Delights. The shops represent updated versions of existing concepts in Lounges 2 and 3.
“The renovation of Lounge 2 is part of a larger plan to make Schiphol attractive to passengers again: tastier and more sustainable food and beverages, great shops with an appealing range and an environment that emphasises Schiphol’s standing as a home base for world travellers,” commented Schiphol Executive Director Commercial Arthur Reijnhart.
“We’re also improving our range of offerings in the luxury segment, with the first big step being the arrival of top brands Louis Vuitton and Bvlgari in Lounge 2. We’ll be creating space for this renewed range in phases, and the opening of Bvlgari is a significant milestone. We welcome passengers to our new Lounge 2.”
Bvlgari Northern Europe Managing Director Bart de Boever added: “I am thrilled to announce the grand opening of our newest BvIgari boutique at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. Our boutique is not just a place to shop, as it is our mission to create a memorable experience for travellers from all around the world.
“We are dedicated to offering an elevated luxury shopping experience that mirrors the high-end environment and refinement synonymous with Lounge 2 and aligns seamlessly with the airport’s ambitious vision for renewal.
“We look forward to welcoming loyal and new clients and delighting them with exceptional service and the unique craftsmanship of our designs. Together let’s embark on this new chapter of bringing the eternal light of the Roman jeweller to the Netherlands and beyond.” ✈
