At a glance
One of ten lounges in Terminal 1, ranking 4th among them. A hub 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 300, pours beer and wine, and has four shower suites to freshen up in. Hours are 6 AM – 10 PM daily. A lounge you'd be glad to have time in. Recorded access options include Priority Pass (Asiana's October 2026 notice lists Priority Pass cardholders departing on a scheduled Star Alliance flight; confirm entry conditions and fees with your card issuer.) and Star Alliance Gold Lounge Access (Star Alliance business-class passengers and Star Alliance Gold members on a scheduled Star Alliance flight; Gold members may bring one companion.).
