World’s largest airport commercial lounge opens in Hong Kong
HONG KONG. The Travelers’ Lounge, a pioneer of the ‘pay-in airport
lounge’ concept, has opened what it claims to be the world’s largest
commercial lounge in Hong Kong International Airport. Located in
Terminal 1, near Departure Gate 1, this flagship lounge spans an
expansive 15,000sq ft and has a seating capacity of approximately 300.
A brainchild of Plaza Premium Lounge Management Limited Founder and
CEO Song Hoi See, the concept was created to offer a new level of
comfort to travellers, providing them with the perfect pre-flight
pampering.
The lounge is divided into different zones to suit the mood of the
visitors. “The aim is to give all travellers the ultimate pre-flight
experience. It is the fusion of innovation, creativity and designer
luxury,” said Song.
Upon entrance to the lounge, visitors are greeted by an oval-shaped
bar where baristas serve up a selection of specialty coffees and freshly
baked pastries. Alcoholic drinks offered include draught beer, wines,
spirits, cocktails, and mocktails, alongside other beverages such as
soft drinks, juices, coffee and tea, and hot chocolate.

The
lounge also serves an all-day buffet as well as an a la carte menu for
breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper. The all-day buffet covers salads,
sandwiches, hot dishes, biscuits, soup, snacks, desserts, fruits,
drinks, coffee and tea, including authentic Hong Kong style culinary
delights. To cater to the international travellers passing through the
airport, there are also choices of vegetarian and Halal food.
Business executives can make use of the wireless hot spots as well
as the full service business centre with well-equipped workstations and
networked printers. There is also a library equipped with the latest
hi-tech meeting facilities such as large screen LCD TV and video
conferencing system.
The Galleria, described as “an oasis of tranquillity”, features wide
sofas with extra leg room, a 24-hour a la carte menu, a wine bar, and a
private resting suite with shower. This is to pamper tired and stressed
out executives who are rushing to catch a flight straight from work,
The Travelers’ Lounge said.
In terms of entertainment, the lounge area which surrounds the bar
features designer plush leather sofas, LCD TV with international
channels showing flight schedule, news, latest movies and sporting
events.
The highlight of the luxury experience is the in-lounge spa
featuring a full range of spa enjoyment: oxygen therapy, soothing
massage, barber services, and manicure and pedicure services.
The ‘Haslauer Soft-Pack System’, a first in Asia, is a European spa
treatment currently shaking up the spa industry worldwide. Suspended
gravity-free, the body is relieved of all pressure on the spine and
joints, allowing it to slip into a state of deep relaxation. “We are
proud to be the first to provide this treatment to travellers. The
beauty of this treatment is to leaving you with the pleasant sensation
of floating weightlessly without getting wet. Perfect for a long-haul
flight pre-pamper,” Song said.
