Checked on the operator’s own pages, 16 October 2026. > Educational guide: we earn nothing from lounge operators. Priority Pass links say whether they are commissioned: an “Ad” label means we may earn a commission; a plain link earns us nothing. Sources are named on the page; check access rules on the operator’s site before you travel. ## Where are Emirates Lounges, and can you use one? 7 of the 8 locations we checked have one of Emirates Lounges open, according to the operator’s own lounge pages on 16 October 2026. The table gives each location; the list after it names airports where there is none, so you do not plan a connection around a lounge that is not there. Access rules, guest allowances and opening hours are set by the operator and change. Confirm them on the operator’s page for your airport in the week you fly. TravelShifu has not visited these lounges; every location below is taken from the operator’s own published list. ## Which airports have Emirates Lounges open? These are the Emirates Lounges open at the airports we checked, with where each one is inside the terminal and the operator page it comes from. Lounges move during terminal works, so check the page again before you rely on one for a connection. | Airport | Where it is (source) | | --- | --- | | Dubai (Emirates Business Class Lounge (Dubai)) | Dubai International, Concourses A, B and C; some lounges are closed or partly open during upgrades ([emirates.com](https://www.emirates.com/english/experience/our-lounges/business-class/)) | | Dubai (Emirates Concourse A lounges (Dubai)) | Dubai International, Concourse A: First and Business Class lounges with direct boarding to the aircraft ([emirates.com](https://www.emirates.com/english/experience/our-lounges/business-class/)) | | Dubai (Emirates First Class Lounge (Dubai)) | Dubai International, Concourses A and B; the Concourse C First Class Lounge is closed for upgrading ([emirates.com](https://www.emirates.com/english/experience/our-lounges/first-class/)) | | JFK (Emirates Lounge) | Terminal 4 ([emirates.com](https://www.emirates.com/us/english/destinations/flights-to-new-york-john-f-kennedy/)) | | LAX (Emirates Lounge) | Tom Bradley International Terminal ([emirates.com](https://www.emirates.com/media-centre/emirates-opens-a-dedicated-lounge-at-los-angeles-international-airport/)) | | London (Emirates Lounge) | Heathrow Terminal 3 (Emirates also lists lounges at Gatwick and Stansted) ([emirates.com](https://www.emirates.com/uk/english/destinations/flights-to-london-heathrow/)) | | Sydney (Emirates Lounge) | Sydney Airport (Emirates lists the lounge and its hours, not its exact position) ([emirates.com](https://www.emirates.com/english/experience/our-lounges/worldwide/)) | ## Which airports do not have Emirates Lounges?
