Passengers traveling through Adani-operated airports across India are currently facing challenges with lounge access due to an unexpected suspension of services by Dreamfolks Services Ltd. This disruption has raised concerns because Dreamfolks is a major lounge access provider that partners with several banks.
In a statement released on Sunday (September 22, 2024), Adani Airport Holdings Ltd (AAHL) admitted the situation and explained their response. The company confirmed that Dreamfolks has violated its service agreements, leading to the current disruptions. To reduce the impact on travelers, AAHL has implemented a temporary solution allowing lounges at its airports to accept all major debit and credit cards from various access providers.
