At a glance
One of three lounges in International Terminal, ranking 2nd among them. An independent lounge with proper tarmac views — though seats are scarce at peak and the food won't make a meal. It leaves drinks self-serve. Hours are 12 AM – 11:59 PM daily. Somewhere to sit down and charge a phone, not to linger. Recorded access options include Plaza Premium (Paid entry or Plaza Premium membership) and Priority Pass (2-hour maximum stay). Entry conditions and availability apply.
