Revolut bets on luxury experiences with plans to open its first airport lounge in 2027. The bank already offers access to more than 1,600 airport lounges globally.

Revolut has revealed plans for a „new standard for airport hospitality” as it prepares to launch its first premium lounges across Europe from next year.

„The fintech group is set to open its inaugural lounge in Copenhagen Airport (CPH) in 2027 as the first in a network of locations across key European hubs.” – according to UK Finance Yahoo.

The move comes as Revolut experiments with its in-person offering, having recently opened its first store in Barcelona.

Hadi Nasrallah, who leads Revolut’s so-called New Bets offering, said: „Everyone agrees airport lounges tend to underwhelm, we want to bring our design ethos into the real world, and will be creating something gutsy and beautiful. We’ll strive to set a new standard for airport hospitality across Europe and bring more unique benefits to Revolut customers when they travel.”

Mr Nasrallah said the Nordics are a key growth market for Revolut, with two million customers currently in the region, expected to surpass three million by the end of the year.

The bank already offers access to more than 1,600 airport lounges globally.

But its branded Copenhagen location will be the first of its kind for the group and the largest common-use lounge in the Schengen area, reflecting its desire to create premium experiences for its customers, according to Revolut.
