At a glance
One of eight lounges in Terminal 2, ranking 4th among them. An airline lounge with a bar worth the visit, showers worth building a layover around, and coffee made by a person rather than a button. It seats around 120, pours beer and wine, and has two shower suites to freshen up in. Hours are 10 AM – 10 PM daily. Fine for a layover, not a reason to plan one. Recorded access options include Admirals Club (operates as the HNL Admirals Club), oneworld Sapphire/Emerald Lounge Access, and Sakura Lounge. Entry conditions and availability apply.
