Lounge in style

Singapore Airlines has unveiled a new concept for its SilverKris Lounge in Sydney, Australia, as part of a multi-million-dollar investment programme to upgrade all its airport lounges worldwide over the next five years.

The new SilverKris Lounge is modelled after elements of a home, following extensive research that included focus groups with customers. The lounge features art pieces sourced locally and from Singapore, and offers personal spaces ranging from a living room, kitchen and dining room to intimate coves for rest and relaxation.

Specially designed productivity pods enable customers to work in privacy, while signature armchairs will be a new feature in all refurbished SilverKris Lounges.

Iconic Singapore dishes will also be served alongside international choices and a wide range of wines and spirits.

Completing the “home” experience are Passenger Relations Officers who are trained to deliver the personal touch Singapore Airlines is known for.

Meanwhile, plans are underway to upgrade lounges at airports in London, Hong Kong and Singapore (Terminal 3) this year.
