A new pop-up bar, "The Blind Gate," has opened at Cologne/Bonn Airport specifically for solo travelers. In collaboration with Eurowings, this bar offers singles the opportunity to get to know each other in a relaxed atmosphere before departure. The concept aims to connect travelers and encourage new encounters.
Eurowings, the largest airline at Cologne/Bonn Airport, is also introducing the "Click & Connect" feature. This allows passengers to select so-called "Flieb's Seats" specifically designed for solo travelers during the booking process. Travelers who use this option can meet their blind date before departure at "The Blind Gate." The airport will cover the cost of two drinks to facilitate the initial meeting.
The bar features a modern design with stylish lounge areas and soft lighting. A carefully curated drinks menu offers a selection of classic cocktails, fine wines, and special signature drinks. These are accompanied by small culinary highlights that vary seasonally. This ambiance is intended to facilitate conversation among guests in a pleasant atmosphere.
Thilo Schmid, CEO of Cologne/Bonn Airport GmbH, emphasizes the importance of this innovative concept: "With 'The Blind Gate,' we are creating an extraordinary opportunity for singles to get to know each other in a special atmosphere right in the middle of our terminal." This offering underscores the airport's commitment to making travelers' stays varied and appealing.
