One of six lounges in Terminal 1, tied for best-rated. An independent lounge with room to get work done in peace, food and drink worth arriving early for, and showers worth building a layover around — though anyone with a day pass can get in. It seats around 150, runs a full bar, and has two shower suites to freshen up in. Hours vary by day (Mon 7 AM – 12 PM, 3 PM – 9:30 PM; Tue 7 AM – 11 AM, 3 PM – 9:30 PM; Wed–Sun 7 AM – 12 PM, 3 PM – 9:30 PM), so check before a very early or late flight. Among the best lounges we track: worth a longer connection. Recorded access options include DragonPass, LoungeKey, and Plaza Premium and 1 more program. Entry conditions and availability apply.
