Bringing its award-winning, luxury look and feel to Denmark for the first time, Aspire Executive Lounges announces the launch of a new offering at Copenhagen Airport.
Aspire Executive Lounges (Aspire) – the European leader in 5* airport hospitality – has today announced the opening of its new lounge at Copenhagen Airport, located close to the A Gates.
The lounge features two tiers of access. The Aspire Executive Lounge provides guests with all the amenities they need for a relaxing journey, such as exceptional complimentary food, drinks and plenty of comfortable, flexible seating. Suite by Aspire, meanwhile, offers an enhanced level of hospitality for those seeking a more luxury experience.
The design places a strong focus on contemporary comfort and purposeful functionality. At the heart of the lounge sits an eye-catching bar, thoughtfully crafted to mirror the elegance of a high-end hotel. Specially trained baristas and mixologists are on hand to pour guests the perfect drink to suit their mood. The food and beverage selection will feature Danish delicacies and locally sourced produce, including an array of pastries and freshly baked bread, open rye sandwiches, seasonal soups and hot dishes as well as traditional Danish Æbleskiver and gingerbread cookies.
Surrounding seating areas are designed to offer a calm space in which guests can unwind and prepare for the journey ahead. Guests can choose from a selection of comfortable seats, tables and private booths, giving them the flexibility to work, dine or relax while enjoying the lounge.
“Today’s travellers expect more than a lounge – they crave choices and premium experiences. At CPH, we want to delight our passengers. Lounges are an important touchpoint, and we noticed a growing demand for spaces where travellers can relax and recharge in surroundings that offer a high level of privacy and comfort. This is exactly what the new Aspire lounge is offering. We can’t wait to open the doors to this new lounge together with Swissport”, says Peter Krogsgaard, Commercial Director at Copenhagen Airport.
Suite by Aspire offers a luxury lounge experience for the most discerning traveller. Elegantly appointed and reminiscent of first-class air travel or a 5* luxury hotel experience, guests will enjoy the very best hospitality experience with champagne on arrival and full table service. Guests can choose from a specially curated á la carte menu which celebrates Danish cuisine and culture, as well as a selection of premium drinks and cocktails.
Aspire’s meticulous approach to hospitality is underpinned by its status as the first and only aviation services provider to be a member of the Institute of Hospitality (IOH), as well as its work with EHL Hospitality Business School. These collaborations strengthen Aspire’s operational standards and training programmes, setting a new benchmark for the airport lounge experience.
“At Aspire we recognise the need to support today’s modern guest. Whether you are travelling for business or leisure, looking for a calm space to relax before your flight or something a little more luxurious, we have designed our lounges to cater for and anticipate our guests every need. Incorporating best practices from our other lounges, while also giving the lounge a distinctly Danish look and feel, we’re delighted to be adding the lounge at Copenhagen Airport to our global network,” comments Dirk Goovaerts, Swissport’s CEO Continental Europe, Middle East, Africa and India.
“We’ve designed the Copenhagen lounge to convey a sense of calm and relaxation. With a wide selection of seating and flexible spaces, the lounge caters to all our guests’ needs – whether they are here to relax, work or dine. Most importantly, the lounge embodies Danish culture, and the best of what Copenhagen has to offer – from its design through to the food & beverage offering,” adds Nick Ames, Global Vice President Commercial and Product, Aspire Executive Lounges.
