Your Next Stop:

 

When we realised that 5 600 of you – our high-flying, trend-setting, jet-setting customers visit OR Tambo International Airport every month – we wanted to make sure that, whether you’re boarding a flight to your next big win or touching down again after your latest victory, you had the perfect place to put your feet up.

 

So, we built three of them.

 

Lounging around OR Tambo Lounges

 

In 2017, we opened the doors to two state-of-the-art lounges at OR Tambo Airport Domestic Departures: CaféBlue and LibraryLounge were designed to cut the stress out of your journey and make your wait great.

 

We designed our lounges to meet your needs at each stage of your life’s journey, and surpass your expectations of what an airport lounge should be. Whether you arrive a few minutes before the gates close, in time to have a coffee or a bite to eat, we’ve got the lounge for you.

 

CaféBlue: Living your best life

In the mood to spend a few minutes enjoying a snack, beverage or even a speciality tea before your flight? Welcome to CaféBlue. With a host(ess) and experienced baristas providing peerless service, all at no charge, CaféBlue will turn a short stop into a moment you wish could last forever.

 

LibraryLounge: The Next step

Our premium offering, LibraryLounge, is the first airport lounge facility of its kind in South Africa. With access permitted 1 hour before boarding, you can enjoy high-quality food and premium beverages, all served with a smile inLibraryLounge’s plush atmosphere. As the name suggests, there are plenty of comfortable nooks for you to relax and forget your worries – just don’t get too comfortable or you’ll miss your flight!
