On my recent flight from Mumbai to Doha, I had the unexpected pleasure of experiencing the Adani West Wing Lounge at Mumbai’s Terminal 2 (International Departures). Despite flying economy class on Air India, my Maharaja Gold status granted me complimentary access to this premium business class lounge — a delightful surprise that truly enhanced my pre-flight experience.
First Impressions & Ambience
The Adani West Wing Lounge is located after immigration and security checks at Mumbai’s T2 terminal, catering primarily to business class and elite frequent flyer members. What sets this lounge apart immediately is the sense of space and tranquility. I accessed it on a weekday afternoon, and to my surprise, the lounge was almost empty — just 5 to 6 guests at most. This gave it a very relaxed and exclusive feel, unlike the often-crowded lounges at major international airports.
The lounge features multiple seating zones, ranging from plush sofa chairs to bar-style seating. I picked a cozy lounge chair with an excellent view of the runway, perfect for aircraft spotting. I even managed to spot an Emirates aircraft taxiing by — a treat for any aviation enthusiast!
Food & Beverage
As it was around lunchtime, I headed straight to the buffet section, which did not disappoint. The spread was generous and well-curated, including:
A wide variety of hot dishes (both vegetarian and non-vegetarian)
Soups and fresh salads
Indian and international main courses
A tempting dessert counter
I paired my meal with a Pina Colada mocktail, freshly prepared by the bartender. The lounge also offers complimentary alcoholic beverages, including a selection of wines, spirits, and beers for those looking to unwind with a drink.
Later in the afternoon, the lounge began serving snacks, which were equally impressive in both quality and presentation. Whether you're grabbing a quick bite or enjoying a leisurely meal, the food at the Adani West Wing Lounge is a strong highlight.
Service & Amenities
The staff were polite, attentive, and helpful, ensuring every guest was comfortable without being intrusive. Wi-Fi was fast and easy to connect, and power outlets were conveniently placed throughout the lounge.
The lounge also offers:
- Clean and well-maintained restrooms
- A quiet environment ideal for work or relaxation
- Views of the runway for aviation lovers
Final Thoughts
Overall, my experience at the Adani West Wing Lounge was nothing short of excellent. It offers:
- Spacious interiors
- Delicious, varied cuisine
- Great runway views
- Professional and courteous staff
- And most importantly — a peaceful escape from the bustling terminal
Even though I was flying economy, this experience reminded me how loyalty programs like Maharaja Gold can elevate your journey significantly.
If you're flying out of Mumbai T2 and have access, don't miss the Adani West Wing Lounge — it’s truly one of the best-kept secrets at the airport.
