South African Airways Opens Upgraded Lounge at OR Tambo


South African Airways has opened The Lounge - its newly upgraded international lounge at OR Tambo International Airport, Johannesburg, reaffirming its commitment to offering customers exceptional services both in the air and on the ground.


The opening of the Premium lounge is the first part of renovations of all lounges, operated by SAA. The First-Class Platinum lounge at OR Tambo International will be renovated early 2024, to be followed by refurbishments of Qheberha, Cape Town, OR Tambo Domestic and Durban lounges.

In partnership with Discovery, and Investec, The Lounge features upgraded comforts where guests can connect, or be connected ahead of their travels, and boasts all-new contemporary design furniture and fittings as well as a carefully curated local art collection.


Guests have the option to be seated with a view over the airport ramp or work in one of the focus booths or simply relax in a quiet zone. The space has been carefully planned should you wish to extend your meeting in our conference rooms or have a separate space to relax with the family.

A buffet dining menu is on offer throughout the day satisfying all palates. The new bar is a show masterpiece from which trained baristas & mixologists will offer a coffee of your choice, a selection of cocktails and mocktails or a choice of the finest South African wines and bubbly. 


Most notably, state-of-the-art La Marzocco coffee machines, often referred to as the “Ferrari” of coffee machines are now available. Sourced from Florence, Italy, the La Marzocco coffee machines form part of a heritage brand dating back to 1927 and are the pinnacle in coffee craftsmanship.

To better serve guests with the ultimate coffee experience, the SAA Lounge team has undergone specialised training focused on brewing techniques and creating various kinds of coffee - all with an emphasis on harnessing the flavour of the different blends available to suit their individual tastes and preferences.


Much attention has been placed on providing travellers with unparalleled experiences and increasing our focus on the customer experience, made possible by our partners Discovery and Investec in transforming our lounges.

By offering a truly exceptional lounge experience that boasts the very best of what South Africa, and the African continent, have on offer, SAA is confident that it will be recognised not only for its pursuit of excellence in the skies, but the overall customer experience on the ground as well.


The Lounge will help South African Airways achieve its vision of once again taking its rightful place as one of the leading airline carriers in the world.

Wow! Stunning! Hilton seems to be taking Africa by storm. Just a couple of years back, they opened the first ever in Eswatini.

Thank you for sharing such a detailed review about ethiopian airlines in your post. I am an avid traveller and keep reading flight reviews to assess the options available. Your review particularly drew my attention because you have shared so many pictures to capture every aspect of the flight experience. It is a very nice effort.

I am really tempted to book the next ethiopian airlines ticket and relive your journey. The pictures shared with the post also reflect that you truly enjoyed the travel. Great post! I also like the fact that you have covered nuances about the food and entertainment service through the pictures. It helps people know what to expect on their travel by this airline.
