T.F. Green Airport celebrated the opening of the airport’s first lounge -- Escape Lounge -- on Wednesday with Iftikhar Ahmad, President and CEO of the Rhode Island Airport Corporation and Martin Jones, CEO of MAG USA and Escape Lounges.
Escape Lounges, which offer multiple locations domestically and internationally, provide all-inclusive premium common use airport lounges which means that anyone traveling through Green can access the new amenity.
Guests entering the lounge will receive unlimited amenities that include hot and cold food and beverages, a full bar, comfortable seating with ample power outlets, high-speed Wi-Fi and up-to-the-second flight information.

"I think travelers now have expectations of airports to make their journey a bit better. It’s been a bit stressful in recent year," said Ahmad. "So these sort of amenities make them feel at home with unlimited food, home cooked meals, unlimited champagne. So I think it adds to the experience at T.F. Green — a very easy airport."

Day passes can be purchased for $45, and the Escape Lounge is free for American Express Platinum Card holders.
