British Airways’ refreshed Seattle lounge has reopened, joining Singapore, Washington, Lagos and London Gatwick, which have all been extensively refurbished after the last nine months. This follows lounge refreshes in Edinburgh and London Heathrow in 2023.
On Friday (February 21, 2025), British Airways announced the reopening of their Seattle Tacoma International Airport lounge following an extensive refurbishment, offering guests an elevated pre-flight experience. This follows the refresh of BA’s lounges in Singapore, Washington, Lagos and London Gatwick over the last nine months, as well as the refurbishment of lounges in Edinburgh, and London Heathrow’s Terminal 5B and Terminal 3 in 2023. The new Sea-Tac lounge has been designed taking inspiration from the Pacific Northwest, while also incorporating British design elegance.
In Friday’s announcement, British Airways’ Chief Customer Officer, Calum Laming, said,
“We announced our £7bn transformation programme last year and promised to improve the customer experience both on the ground and in the air. Across our global network we have 28 lounges in 20 airports that all play a huge part in our customers’ journeys, so we’re committed to offering the very best experience.
“Just like our customers and colleagues, each lounge is unique. Customers can expect to see nods to our British heritage blended seamlessly with features that celebrate the locality of the destination. We’ve worked with local designers, artists, and suppliers across the globe to ensure that each lounge has its own British Original personality – and we can’t wait to unveil more.”

British Airways’ remodeled Seattle lounge features a completely redesigned food service area, offering guests a comprehensive range of hot and cold items, a dedicated à la carte dining experience for First Class customers, and work-friendly focus pods. A new full-service bar has also been installed, serving as central lounge feature, while the walls have been adorned with textile artwork by local artists such as Hannah Mason.
Later this year, the carrier will open a new lounge at Dubai International Airport, which will debut the airline’s new design concept with exclusive features including Concorde Dining, an elevated food offering, showers, and a full-service bar. Additionally, British Airways will open a new lounge at Miami International Airport, which will be conveniently located above the departure gates. Later this year, lounge refreshes in both Boston and Glasgow will also commence.
