JERSEY. No1 Lounges, a joint venture between Airport Dimensions and Swissport, is set to open a lounge at Jersey Airport in 2025 after winning the lounge tender issued by Ports of Jersey.
No1 Lounges noted its focus on local recruitment, with plans to create a Jersey Airport lounge workforce that reflects local identity and community spirit.
The lounge will capture a strong sense of place, incorporating Jersey’s natural aesthetic and character into No1 Lounges’ signature style.
With a total area of 549sq m, the lounge will offer 464.5sq m of front-of-house space with seating for 148 guests, designed for relaxation, work and social interaction.
Among the key highlights will be the panoramic views, allowing guests to enjoy Jersey’s beauty while relaxing or working in a quiet setting.
The No1 Lounge will be open to all travellers at Jersey Airport, regardless of airline or travel class, providing a premium experience for everyone. Access will be available to Priority Pass and LoungeKey members, enhancing the journey for passengers flying to and from the Channel Islands, with connections to the UK and Europe.
The company’s new Jersey Airport lounge marks its 17th location, adding to its growing portfolio which includes lounges at Birmingham, London Gatwick, Heathrow and Luton airports.
No1 Lounges Managing Director Rami El-Dahshan said: “This is such an exciting moment for No1 Lounges, and we’re thrilled to be part of this ambitious project at Jersey Airport. Jersey has incredible energy and unique charm, and we’re passionate about creating a lounge experience that reflects the spirit of the island.
“Hot on the heels of our latest opening at Heathrow and as part of our ambitious expansion across the UK and Europe, this project is a testament to our commitment to delivering exceptional experiences to travellers.
“It’s not just about building a space – it’s about immersing ourselves in the culture and collaborating with the local community to create something really special. We can’t wait to bring it to life.”
Ports of Jersey Chief Executive Matt Thomas added: “I am delighted to announce our partnership with No1 Lounges, and we are looking forward to being able to provide this stylish sanctuary from the busy terminal, run by an award-winning lounge provider which successfully operates 15 UK airport lounges.
“No1 Lounges have a reputation for delivering outstanding customer service, a welcoming atmosphere, and a memorable experience for every guest, and we are confident that this lounge will provide a relaxing environment to unwind before a flight.” ✈
