What is an airport lounge?
Table of Contents
Airport lounges are relaxing places where airline passengers can wait for their flights in comfort.
They typically offer a more comfortable environment than the crowded and noisy airport terminals, with amenities such as complimentary drinks, snacks, Wi-Fi, TV, newspapers, and magazines.
Some lounges also have showers, private workstations and conference rooms.
Airport lounges are typically located near the gates, so passengers can relax before their flights.
Most lounges are accessible to passengers with first or business class tickets, or those who have elite status with their airline’s frequent flyer program.
Some lounges can also be accessed by purchasing a day pass or an annual membership.

This is only recommended for flyers with long layovers of over 5 hours. If your layover is 3+ hours, you can still reach out but we cannot guarantee the ideal package that will change your layovers to mini-vacations. I only support clients flying through US airports and a select number of cities across the world.
