South African Airways (SAA) and Discovery have just unveiled their reimagined airport lounge at Cape Town International Airport’s domestic departures terminal.

Officially opened this past weekend, the refreshed space marks the third milestone in the airline and lifestyle brand's rollout of lounges across the country, joining the international departures lounge at OR Tambo and the domestic lounge at Chief Dawid Stuurman airports.

Take a look at The Lounge concept design in the video below:

The space now features high-speed WiFi, private focus booths for work, entertainment, or calls, as well as collaborative workspaces. The food offering has an expanded menu for buffet-style dining from gourmet breakfasts to crafted canapés. There is also a full-service, mixology show-bar with expert baristas and bartenders.
