Dragonpass Global Awards 2025 Winners
We are excited to announce the winners of the first-ever Dragonpass Global Awards, a moment that celebrates not only exceptional airport lounges, but the people, passion, and care that bring those experiences to life.

For years, we’ve had the privilege of working closely with lounge partners around the world. Every day, we see the thoughtfulness, dedication, and genuine hospitality that shape the traveler experience. These awards were created to honour that work, the individuals behind the scenes, the teams who welcome travellers, and the spaces that turn an ordinary journey into something more comfortable, seamless and memorable.
This year, we celebrate two categories:
The Rising Star of the Year – Awarded for excellence to lounges that may fly under the radar but consistently deliver exceptional service, comfort, and unexpected delight to travellers.
Ultimate Lounge of the Year – Awarded to lounges that set the ultimate benchmark for excellence - delivering consistently outstanding experiences across service, design, amenities, and overall guest satisfaction.
The winners are represented across seven global regions and reflect a shared commitment between our partners to put travellers first. We’re grateful for the dedication that made these experiences possible.
Congratulations to the following lounges selected to be our winners of this year’s Dragonpass Global Awards!
