HUNGARY. Mastercard, in partnership with Plaza Premium Group, has re-opened the newly renovated lounge at Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport.
With a fresh and new look, the Mastercard Airport Lounge offers premium services to Mastercard guests. It is available exclusively to holders of Hungary-issued World Elite, Platinum, Business Platinum and Gold Mastercard and internationally-issued World Elite and Black Mastercard.
Located at the mezzanine level of the SkyCourt hall in Terminal 2, the newly upgraded airport lounge is easily accessible to guests who need a space to work, relax and dine hile waiting for their flight. It opens daily from 5am to 9pm.
The 160sq m lounge can accommodate up to 56 travellers at a time. It features interiors inspired by the Danube River, with smooth and curved linear surfaces to allow a relaxing ambience.
The lounge also offers a selection of hot and cold dishes and signature beverages served at the dedicated bar area throughout the day.
Mastercard Country Manager of Hungary and Slovenia Endre Eölyüs said: “We are really excited to start a new chapter of the renewed Mastercard Premium Lounge. Our main goal hasn’t changed: we want to offer our premium cardholders an experience they can’t find anywhere else. The renewal is not limited to the space, but also to the catering, refreshments, and other services available to Mastercard Premium cardholders. We believe we have found the best partner in Plaza Premium Group and we’re looking forward to exploring new ways to take our services to the next level.”
Plaza Premium Group Senior Vice President for Europe, Middle East, and Africa Okan Kufeci commented: “As travel demand is continuously rising, we are grateful to be trusted by Mastercard to expand our world-class airport hospitality services to the premium cardholders in Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport.
“With Plaza Premium Group’s 25 years of expertise in building exceptional lounge operations, we are confident in developing a comfortable, memorable, and seamless airport experience that delights Mastercard customers and serves travellers evolving needs and expectations. With this milestone, we aim to set a solid foundation for a broader collaboration with Mastercard in the near future.”
This new lounge is another addition to Plaza Premium Lounge’s growing portfolio of airport lounges. The company also operates its own brand of premium lounges in Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport Terminal 2 Departures – one at the SkyCourt hall and another in Terminal 2B.
Budapest Airport Mobility and Commercial Passenger Services Director Manel Moreno said: “It is great to see Plaza Premium Group operating the newly refurbished Mastercard Lounge at Budapest Airport. We trust that Premium Mastercard cardholders travelling from Budapest Airport will now have access to the highest level of service with this proven International Lounge operating partner.”
