Tradition is big at Edinburgh Airport, and the latest addition is tartan through and through.
Visitors to the newly opened Turkish Airlines Lounge can now enjoy home grown drinks thanks to a partnership between Plaza Premium Group (PPG), the global leader in 360 degree hospitality services and multi award-winning distiller Loch Lomond Group.
Served in the lounge’s elegant and inviting Loch Lomond Bar in the centre of the spacious area, this is a great asset for any traveller.
Single malt enthusiasts can explore an exceptional range of Loch Lomond and Glen Scotia bottlings, including the travel-exclusive Loch Lomond Remarkable Stills Collection. Guests also have the rare opportunity to discover limited editions and exclusive single cask releases showcasing the very best of Scotland’s whisky craftsmanship.
The bar also features an exceptional line-up of Spearhead and Noble Rebel blended and single grain whiskies, Ben Lomond Gin and Champagne Piaff, presenting Edinburgh lounge guests with an exclusive and expertly curated selection of premium pours.
It’s all part of the fantastic service on hand at this welcoming lounge close to Gate 13 and away from the hustle and bustle of the busy airport.
It is open to Turkish Airlines Business Class passengers and Miles and Smiles Premium Visa Signature cards holders, gold members of the Star Alliance group and paid lounge members or day pass holders. The lounge is spacious, well decorated in soft colours and has open plan seating.
High class cuisine with a nod to finest Turkish dishes, teas, coffees and the wide selection of complimentary wines, beers and spirits are served in the lounge and there are on site toilets.
Plaza Premium Group has also expanded its partnership with Loch Lomond Group, introducing Spearhead and Loch Lomond Origins whiskies to guests at its London Heathrow and Gatwick lounges. This collaboration brings the craftsmanship, quality and character of Loch Lomond Group’s exceptional range to travellers across the UK.

“We are delighted to partner with the award-winning Loch Lomond Group to bring a true taste of Scottish hospitality to our lounges in Edinburgh, London Heathrow and Gatwick.
