BALTIMORE, August 26, 2013 – AIRMALL® USA, the leading airport concessions developer in North America and operator of the AIRMALL at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI Marshall), is pleased to announce that Sky Azure (800 sq. ft.), a contemporary new cocktail and tapas lounge, is now open to travelers. Offering sweeping views of the airfield, Sky Azure is located pre-security in the airport’s recently renovated second-level Observation Gallery adjacent to the new BC checkpoint.
“Sky Azure is a sophisticated new lounge where travelers can relax and enjoy a bite and a cocktail while watching planes arrive and depart on the airfield,” said Brett Kelly, vice president of AIRMALL Maryland. “Since Sky Azure is located pre-security, we anticipate it will become a destination for travelers and locals alike who come to enjoy the exceptional views and unique vibe.”
