One of three lounges in Domestic Terminal, and the best-rated of them. A quiet renovated 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 150, runs a full bar, and has two shower suites to freshen up in. Hours are 4:30 AM – 1 AM daily. It was last refreshed in 2024. Among the best lounges we track: worth a longer connection. Recorded access options include Maple Leaf Lounge and Star Alliance Gold Lounge Access. Entry conditions and availability apply.
