Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse Coming to Los Angeles LAX in 2025

Despite having 3 daily flights to Los Angeles LAX International Airport, Virgin Atlantic still doesn’t have its own proprietary lounge at the airport. That though is soon to change as the British carrier prepares to open one of its own Clubhouses in Los Angeles’ intercontinental airport.

Virgin Atlantic Setting Up One of Its Clubhouses in LAX Airport

Virgin Atlantic passengers and frequent flyers will soon have a space to call home at Los Angeles international airport. So far, the British carrier didn’t have its own proprietary lounge at LAX. Passengers, therefore, had to use other partner airline lounges that would grant them access.

This isn’t a huge deal in most cases but for Virgin’s it means that the airline can’t convey and offer a brand continuity between airside and onboard experience. That is quite an integral part of the whole experience of flying Virgin Atlantic. The airline has its very own distinctive feel that is different to anything any other carrier offers.

Now that will soon change though. We don’t have a precise date just yet, but we do know that the carrier will be opening its lounge at LAX in 2025 Q1. Going into more detail the lounge will open at the airport’s Tom Bradley International Terminal.

Wireless charging stations
Bluetooth connectivity
Numerous power outlets
A cocktail bar with in-house mixologist
Private pods to take calls or work
Showers and changing facilities
