SkyTeam Lounge – Istanbul (IST)
The SkyTeam Lounge at Istanbul’s new airport opened in November 2019.
Designed and operated in partnership with Global Lounge Network (who also operates the SkyTeam Lounge Vancouver), the club is located next to the shared IGA Lounge on a mezzanine overlooking the expansive concourse.

The decor of the new SkyTeam Lounge Istanbul combines SkyTeam’s signature design language and local touches.

The striking reception area sports a modern interpretation of the mashrabiya, a traditional Middle Eastern latticework with an ornate screen. The mashrabiya, which has offered protection against the sun for centuries, is re-invented in the age of LED lighting as an architectural feature that projects light patterns and seamlessly blends with the airport’s soaring sculptural roof.
The main space boasts SkyTeam’s traditional moss wall, fluid lines, curved wooden partitions—playfully called “nests”—and Earth tones with pops of color.
Guests have their choice of dining booths, traditional lounge seats, communal tables, counter-style seating overlooking the concourse, and private productivity pods outfitted with a side table and a lamp. Power outlets are available at virtually every seat.
