Korean Air on Tuesday unveiled its newly renovated lounge at Incheon International Airport, Korea's main gateway, featuring a special zone for ramyeon and other convenience facilities for its air travelers.

The Prestige East Lounge at Terminal 2 of the airport in Incheon spans 1,553 square meters and is designed to resemble a luxury hotel lounge. The facility officially opens Wednesday.

It features upgraded buffet and live cooking stations, dining areas, shower facilities and dedicated work spaces for business travelers, the airline said.

The lounge's new zone for ramyeon, or Korean instant noodles, allows passengers to customize and prepare domestic noodle brands via automated machines.

The Korean flag carrier also strengthened related digital services, introducing advance lounge reservations via its website and mobile app. Real-time crowd level information and mobile queuing services are also provided.
