Tarmac-views for new Karratha Qantas lounge

Qantas have announced they will open a new airport lounge on the top floor of Karratha Airport in early 2017.

The lounge will be more than twice the size of the old space and will be available for Qantas Club members, customers travelling in business, eligible frequent flyers and oneworld members..

QantasLink chief executive John Gissing said investing in a new lounge showed the company’s commitment to the Pilbara.

“As the only airline to offer a lounge at Karratha Airport, this will be a great boost to both Pilbara region locals as well as the important Fly-in Fly-out market, offering more room to relax prior to their flight,” he said.

“Karratha is our largest port in the region so investing in a new lounge is a clear indication of our commitment to Karratha and the Pilbara.”

Mr Gissing said the lounge would incorporate local design influences, work and rest areas, complimentary refreshments and beverages, Wi-Fi and Foxtel.
