Plaza Premium operates a network of independent airport lounges in over 110 airports worldwide, as well as nearly two dozen railway stations in mainland China. Unlike airline-run lounges, these locations aren\u2019t tied to a specific carrier or frequent flyer status \u2014 making them accessible to a wider range of travelers.<\/p>\n
The brand launched in 1998 with lounges in Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur, and it now spans six continents. While amenities vary by location, many Plaza Premium lounges offer comfortable seating, Wi-Fi, hot food, drinks (sometimes including alcohol), and shower facilities. Some locations also reflect local design influences and culinary touches \u2014 though offerings can range from basic to more upscale depending on the airport.<\/p>\n One of my personal favorites of these lounges is in S\u00e3o Paolo (GRU). It offers fantastic food options, tons of space, beautiful views of the runway, and comfortable furnishings for any type of traveler. That said, not all of these lounges are created equal, so some locations are better than others.<\/p>\n Related: What You Need To Know About Priority Pass<\/a><\/strong>\u2122 Lounges<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n You'll find Plaza Premium lounges in more than 110 airports across more than 40 countries worldwide, so it's not feasible to list out each and every location.
