PremiAir terminal raises the bar for airport guest services

The PremiAir terminal at Manchester Airport is now open.

The new facility is handling passengers travelling with 23 airlines.

New images show design-led modernist lounges offering passengers an ultimate and indulgent new option for departing and arriving at Manchester.

With a range of options for guests to choose from, PremiAir, which is operated entirely in-house by MAG’s (Manchester Airports Group) own specialist team, is designed for passengers who are looking to add an extra level of convenience, comfort and style to their airport experience.

The pictures depict airy, spacious lounge spaces with exposed wooden beams, state-of-the-art furniture and stunning runway views.

The facility, which is separate from the main terminals on the western edge of the airfield, has been designed to be flooded with natural light and comes with complementary high speed wifi, signature refreshments and authentic cuisine made fresh to order.

The menu changes weekly, but includes dishes such as Asian pork bao buns served in individual bamboo steamers and delicious fresh fruit patisserie.

Mart Louwerse, general manager of PremiAir, said: “We are so excited to be open and to be able to show off what we have to offer here. PremiAir is a stunning, highly individual space, and you can’t experience anything like it elsewhere in aviation at such a competitive price point.

“We are also delighted to now have 23 airlines on board and we hope to add to that list in the coming months to give an ever bigger slice of Manchester Airport’s passengers the opportunity to sample the private jet experience at Manchester.

“Guests are welcome to use PremiAir, whether they’re travelling to a vital business meeting or as an extra special start to the holiday of a lifetime.”

A number of packages are available to suit individual guests’ needs.

PremiAir also offers groups of between five and 50 guests access to one of its three private suites, which are all located before security, meaning non-travelling guests can also join group events and meetings.

Commercial law firm Kuits advised Manchester Airports Group on the licence for the new terminal.
