Overview
- Aspire confirmed on Tuesday that a centrally located Terminal 2 lounge will open in late August 2026 with seating for more than 300 passengers.
- The space is designed with separate dining, social, quiet and private work areas to serve leisure and business travellers seeking food, rest or productivity before flights.
- Prebook prices start at roughly £46.99 for adults and £31.99 for children aged two to 11, with cash bookings also reported to be available at similar rates.
- The company says the new lounge should relieve capacity pressure at Manchester, where club-card access has been limited, and existing Aspire sites at the airport are expected to remain open.
- The Manchester opening is part of Swissport/Aspire’s 2026 expansion drive that takes the group from 93 lounges at end‑2025 toward a confirmed 106 locations and about 6.4 million annual guests.
