Confidence is building, passenger numbers are regaining impressive growth, and Plaza Premium Group’s ambitions to extend its 360- degree world-class airport hospitality services and facilities in Europe are on track.” Located in Gatwick’s North Terminal, the 1,350 square metre lounge can accommodate up to 190 guests in a comfortable environment where they can relax and wine and dine before departure.
