Virgin Atlantic unveils new clubhouse in Tokyo
18 July 2007
Virgin Atlantic has re-opened its clubhouse at Narita airport in Tokyo, Japan, following a complete refurbishment.
The clubhouse is sporting a new design that incorporates Japanese influences such as a two sunken lounges and a sun deck, as well as improved business facilities and a new open-plan design, to create one large space consisting of smaller private areas.
There is increased seating capacity on top of new business facilities, including cutting edge computer terminals and a dedicated business area featuring Wi-Fi connectivity and international and business land lines. There are also facilities to charge mobile phones and blackberries now in place. These different areas are separated by a series of highly decorated traditional Japanese screens.
Paul Sands, country manager of Japan at Virgin Atlantic, said: 'Clubhouses have always been a great way for us to set ourselves apart from other airlines, particularly for a morning departure like the Tokyo one.
'Our passengers need a lounge that is going to work perfectly and let them get their business needs out of the way quickly and efficiently, but also allow them to be able to relax and soak up some of the unique Virgin atmosphere that is offered in our stylish Narita Clubhouse.'
