UK. A new spa is set to open at Newcastle International Airport in the Departures lounge this week. Customers at the northeastern airport can experience a variety of treatments at the Aquaria Spa, including the fish pedicures, manicures, massages and reflexology.
The airport operator is encouraging travellers to arrive at the airport in good time before their flight to take advantage of the spa.

Newcastle International Airport Commercial Director Gill Caleary said: “We felt that there was a real desire amongst travellers for something different and new, and Aquaria Spa delivers this. As well as the vast range of retail and catering outlets to spend time in, taking some much deserved “˜me’ time at Aquaria Spa is a perfect way to get your holiday off to a relaxing start.”
Aquaria Spa Operations Director John Pridgeon said: “The extension of our services into the airport arena is a key part of our growth strategy. A quick Indian head massage or getting your nails painted, or Minx’d, before you fly will now become the norm for many passengers, especially given that they can book their appointments in advance or on their way to the airport.
“It’s simple, especially if you’re travelling for a last-minute meeting or holiday”¦ you don’t need to worry about looking or feeling your best, just arrive at the airport early and start relaxing.”
The new team of ten therapists at Aquaria Spa are trained and certified.
Manicures, including Gels, Minx and Jessica treatments, can be booked in advance. Services targeted at male passengers include bespoke massages and the Garra Rufa fish pedicure.
