At a glance
One of eight lounges in Terminal E, ranking 6th among them. An independent lounge with room to get work done in peace, food and drink worth arriving early for, and showers worth building a layover around — though anyone with a day pass can get in. It seats around 180, runs a full bar, and has two shower suites to freshen up in. Hours are 6 AM – 10:30 PM daily. It opened in 2018. A lounge you'd be glad to have time in. Recorded access options include DragonPass, LoungeKey, and Priority Pass. Entry conditions and availability apply.
