Diner's Club Lounge at Dubai International Airport.

I'm currently working at Dubai since December last year. And due to project needs, I went to Doha on 12th April, 2008. My flight was 11.30am depart from Dubai and I reached Dubai airport at 9am sharp. After checked in the ticketing counter and passed through the immigration check point, I went to get my breakfast at the First Class Lounge for FREE!!

I'm not taking the First Class ticket as I'm not a rich man, indeed. I benefited this because I'm a Diner's Club member.

If you do traveling often to overseas, I suggested you to apply a Diner's Club credit card. As a Diner's Club member, you may enjoy delicious food and good facilities at the First Class Lounge at most of the international airport, for FREE.

At Dubai Airport, the Diner's Club First Class Lounge is located in-between Gate 12 & Gate 14 inside the Terminal 1. All you need to do is to present your Diner's Club credit card to the front desk receptionist together with your boarding pass.

You will need to sign the "receipt" after they swiped your card. That is totally no charge to your card but to verify if you are a valid Diner's Club member. The boarding pass is for them to mark down your flight details and to board cast the flight's number and destination when the boarding time comes.

The lounge inside is 2 floors separated . The upper floor is for the smokers. Both floor are provided all kinds of food, drinks, wine and even whiskey........There are 2 desktop with internet ready while the WIFI is also available. Let me show you how does it looks like inside this comfortable place......

All delicious foods & fruits. Yummy~yummy!!!!!....

Wide range of beers, wines, whiskeys & nuts. You can enjoy but DON'T get DRUNK!!!

My 1st round (left) .....& my 2nd round (right) of food. The shrimps were just very nice....

You are right!!...my 3rd round...hah~hah! You can find "Buah Rambutan" here too!

You can serve internet while you are enjoying the food. WIFI is available - using "Maxspot".

People are reading, taking nap or just relax themselves while waiting for boarding.

Upper floor for smokers, and also provided wide range of foods, wine, whiskey, fruits and juices.

There is a 46" LCD T.V & some massage chair at the upper floor.

Nice place huh? This is the fantastic benefit by Diner's Club. In fact Diner's Club members can enter most of the international airport's First Class Lounge. As you are aware, all the foods inside the airport are extremely expensive. And we can always seen people taking nap or sleep just on the bench at the airport when they are tire or while waiting for boarding.

But as for a Diner's Club member, you can enjoy and relax yourself with all kinds of food and the comfortable facilities inside the lounge for "FREE", sounds good isn't it??

However, this great benefit is not available at our KLIA (Kuala Lumpur International Airport), this is really a big disappointment to me. I'm expecting Diner's club will soon enter to KLIA First Class Lounge. But now, I'm more exacted if my Diner's club annual fee can be "free for life" as I seems like selling Diner's Card here~~~for FREE TOO~~~!!

WAA~~KAA~~KAA~~KAA~~~!!!!
