At a glance

It seats around 100 and pours beer and wine. Hours are 4 AM – 10 PM daily. Somewhere to sit down and charge a phone, not to linger. Recorded access options include DragonPass, LoungeKey, and Priority Pass — Operating in a smaller temporary space near gate 53 since October 5, 2026. Maximum stay 2 hours; confirm temporary-lounge access and guest charges with your issuer.. Entry conditions and availability apply.
