London City Airport recently opened its First Class Lounge within its Private Jet Centre. The new service allows passengers traveling into London City the opportunity to connect to a scheduled flight without leaving the Jet Centre. Meanwhile, the Jet Centre also partnered with Air Culinaire Worldwide as a preferred catering choice for the First Class Lounge and its flights.

London City Airport’s new lounge is open to any passenger traveling on a participating airline flight. Since it is located in the Private Jet Centre, passengers and their luggage are transported from the airline terminal to the lounge. From there, they are escorted in a private vehicle straight to the aircraft’s steps when the flight is ready for takeoff. The First Class Lounge has a security team as well as customs and immigration officers available on site. Besides this, passengers who use the First Class Lounge also receive new catering options from Air Culinaire.

Through the Jet Centre’s partnership with Air Culinaire, the menu offered at the First Class Lounge has been upgraded. Michelin star chef Herve Bourdon has created a new menu that includes passenger and crew meals. This new partnership not only improves London City’s catering options, but it also increases Air Culinaire’s network of kitchens in the London area.
