Which lounges are available at Aberdeen Airport?
Aberdeen Airport has one bookable lounge, the Northern Lights Executive Lounge near Gate 1. The British Airways Lounge is closed for refurbishment between June and September 2026, with eligible passengers redirected to Northern Lights.
Northern Lights Executive Lounge
Reached by lift near Gate 1, the Northern Lights Executive Lounge is Aberdeen's only lounge currently open to book. It runs independently of any one airline, so anyone can buy a pass regardless of ticket class, and it's the same lounge BA passengers are being pointed to while their own is closed.
British Airways Lounge (current status)
The British Airways Lounge at Aberdeen is closed for refurbishment from June to September 2026. If you'd normally use it on eligibility, book Northern Lights Executive Lounge with us instead for the same pre-flight experience while the work is under way. Aberdeen Airport (ABZ) has a single terminal, run by AGS Airports, so both lounges sit within the same short walk of every gate.
How much does Aberdeen Airport lounge access cost?
Northern Lights Executive Lounge access at Aberdeen costs £29.50 per adult and £17 per child, with under-3s admitted free. Book with us and apply BCP30 for a further saving.
Adult and child prices
£29.50 covers an adult, £17 a child aged 3 and over, and anyone under 3 goes in free of charge. For a family of four flying together, that's a lounge pass for less than the cost of a single terminal meal deal for each of you bought separately, and it comes with a seat guaranteed at booking rather than a gamble on space when you arrive.
Is a lounge pass worth it at Aberdeen?
For a delayed flight, an early check-in or just a calmer start to a trip, £29.50 buys a proper seat, hot food and a full bar rather than a fold-down gate chair.
Aberdeen's terminal gets busy fast during the early-morning energy-sector rush, when seating at the gates is at a premium and queues for food outlets stack up. A lounge pass sidesteps both problems in one booking. If you're travelling for business and want somewhere to make a last call before boarding, or you're on a family trip and would rather the kids had space to sit than stand in a queue, the lounge earns its price back quickly.
What is included in the Northern Lights Lounge?
Your pass includes complimentary food and drink, WiFi and comfortable seating, with the menu built around Aberdeenshire produce rather than a generic corporate buffet.
Food and drink
Aberdeenshire food and drink features heavily on the menu, alongside a whisky selection and craft beer chosen to reflect the region rather than a standard national lounge offer. Hot and cold options run through the day, so a pass works whether you're in for breakfast before an early departure or a proper meal ahead of an evening flight.
Facilities and views
The lounge looks straight out over the runway, so watching your own aircraft on the apron replaces staring at a departure board. Free WiFi and comfortable seating make it a genuine place to work or relax rather than just somewhere to sit.
How do I book an Aberdeen Airport lounge?
Use the Lounge tab in the search above, choose your flight date, and book your pass with promo code BCP30 pre-applied.
Select the Lounge tab, confirm the date you're flying, and complete your booking online. Confirmation lands in your inbox straight away, with the pass ready to show at the lounge entrance from your phone. Book ahead of the day if you can — Aberdeen's lounge does get busy around the morning offshore rotation, so a confirmed pass beats hoping there's room when you arrive.
Can I access an Aberdeen lounge without a business ticket?
Yes. Northern Lights Executive Lounge sells passes to any passenger, regardless of ticket class or airline.
You don't need a business-class ticket, airline status or a specific carrier to book Aberdeen's lounge — an economy ticket on any airline qualifies for a pass bought directly with us. It's priced as a standalone product rather than a benefit tied to how much you paid for your flight.
More questions about Aberdeen Airport lounges
Lounge stays are built around your flight time rather than a fixed clock, so you're free to arrive when it suits and stay until your gate is called. We'd recommend arriving at least 90 minutes before departure to make the most of your pass.
Yes, hand luggage and pushchairs are welcome in the lounge itself. Anything checked in should already be with the airline by the time you reach the lounge, so you're only carrying what you'd take to the gate anyway.
Walk-ins can be turned away if the lounge is at capacity, particularly during the early-morning energy-sector rush. Book your pass with us in advance and the seat is guaranteed, whatever the lounge looks like on the day.
Get in touch with us as soon as your flight is cancelled and we'll do what we can with the lounge operator on your behalf. Refund terms sit with the lounge itself rather than us, so the sooner you tell us, the more options are usually still open.
Yes. The Northern Lights Executive Lounge is airside, so it works just as well for a layover as it does for a flight starting at Aberdeen. Book it against whichever departure time applies to your connection.
The lounge menu rotates but generally includes vegetarian options alongside the Aberdeenshire dishes. If you have a specific allergy or requirement, it's worth mentioning it to lounge staff on arrival rather than assuming in advance.
