Qantas customers travelling through regional Western Australia will soon enjoy an enhanced airport experience with the development of its new Broome Regional Lounge starting today.
Due to open in December 2024, the new space will be double the capacity of the existing lounge following consistent strong demand from premium travellers to the area, in addition to the expansion of the airport terminal.
Qantas Chief Customer and Digital Officer Catriona Larritt says: “We are thrilled to bring this new, elevated lounge experience to our customers in Broome, a popular destination on our network.”
“Western Australia is a key market for us and our continued investment in the state underscores our commitment to supporting visitation to Broome and providing exceptional experiences for our customers who are travelling through for business or leisure.”
The architecture of the lounge will be reflective of the surrounding Kimberley area ensuring customers are immersed in the region’s natural landscape from the moment they step in.
Rich, vibrant colours inspired by Dampier Peninsula, connecting Broome to the remote Kimberley coast, will be prominent throughout the design fit out including deep red hues from the James Price Point landscape, bright oranges representing the sand and soil at Roebuck Bay and blue tones drawing from Willie Creek.
The existing lounge will remain open throughout the redevelopment of the new Broome Regional Lounge, which is part of the Flying Kangaroo’s $100 million investment to upgrade its global lounge network.
Qantas operates seasonal flights to Broome with direct routes from Sydney and Melbourne between April and October, and year-round flights from Perth.
