One of five lounges in Terminal B, and the best-rated of them. An airline lounge lounge with room to get work done in peace, food and drink worth arriving early for, and showers worth building a layover around. It seats around 100, runs a full bar, and has two shower suites to freshen up in. Hours are 2:45 PM – 9 PM daily. A lounge you'd be glad to have time in. Galleries Lounge and oneworld Sapphire/Emerald Lounge Access get you in — Closed for refurbishment until summer 2027.
