British Airways has opened new lounges at Miami International Airport and Dubai International Airport.

Both lounges have full-service bars as focal points, menus that feature local ingredients with a British twist and “exclusive” Concorde dining rooms. These openings are the latest part of the airline’s 7-billion-pound (about $9.35 billion) transformation program, with significant recent investment in lounges, such as the refreshes in London Gatwick, Lagos, Singapore, Seattle and Washington Dulles.

This is the first time in decades that the airline has had its own lounge available to customers in Miami. It spans 13,000 square feet, becoming the largest lounge outside of London solely operated by British Airways. The facility is in Terminal E, directly above its departure gate.

The Dubai lounge is in Terminal 1 at Dubai International Airport and spans nearly 5,800 square feet. The space, according to an announcement, “offers customers an elevated experience that blends contemporary British design and the rich spirit of the UAE.”

Access to the lounges is available to customers traveling in Club World (business class) or First, The British Airways Club members with Silver status and above, and Oneworld customers with Sapphire status and above.
