At a glance
One of four lounges in Concourse B, and the best-rated of them. An airline 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 120, runs a full bar, and has two shower suites to freshen up in. Hours are 2:30 PM – 10:30 PM daily. It was last refreshed in 2024. A lounge you'd be glad to have time in. Recorded access options include Galleries Lounge and oneworld Sapphire/Emerald Lounge Access. Entry conditions and availability apply.
