At a glance
The only lounge in Main Terminal. An airport-operated lounge with food and drink worth arriving early for, coffee made by a person rather than a button, and proper tarmac views. It leaves drinks self-serve. It's open around the clock, so a red-eye or a dawn departure is covered. Fine for a layover, not a reason to plan one. Recorded access options include Priority Pass — Max 3-hour stay. Entry conditions and availability apply.
