Airport Dimensions has opened a new Blue Sky Premier Lounge at the Makassar Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport (UPG) in Indonesia. This new location spans 5,382 square feet (500 m²) with a capacity for 137 travellers. The lounge is situated in the domestic terminal just past security and is open 24 hours.

This opening marks the first milestone in the partnership between Blue Sky Lounge and Airport Dimensions, which was announced in March 2025. The lounge combines sleek modern style with a regional identity, featuring locally crafted Batik motifs and design elements highlighting Makassar’s coastal port city history.

Guests can also enjoy a selection of cold-pressed juices from the Healthy Corner, unlimited Le Minerale premium water, and tea.
