How to Access Plaza Premium Lounges

Plaza Premium Group is an independent lounge provider with a presence at most major airports in Canada, and also across the world. 

Fortunately, many financial institutions offer credit cards that come with access to Plaza Premium Lounges, which can be handy for trips close to home and abroad.

In this guide, we’ll look at how you can access Plaza Premium Lounges with credit cards and lounge memberships.

What Are Plaza Premium Lounges?

Plaza Premium Lounges are the flagship offering of Hong Kong-based Plaza Premium Group, which offers a range of airport hospitality services, such as meet-and-greets, hotels, and lounges.

For the most part, Plaza Premium Lounges welcome all travellers, regardless of airline or cabin, as long as they pay a fee, book online, or enter with an eligible membership.

Plaza Premium Lounges may also be contracted by airlines to serve premium passengers. For example, British Airways and Cathay Pacific send premium cabin passengers to the Plaza Premium Lounge at Toronto Pearson Terminal 3.

While Plaza Premium Lounges aren’t necessarily the most flashy lounges out there, they offer a decent selection of food, drink, and alcoholic drinks that are included with your entry. In some cases, access to showers and premium alcohol come with a charge.

Where Can You Find Plaza Premium Lounges?

The Plaza Premium Group is present in 250 locations across more than 80 airports worldwide. While many of its lounges are located in Asia, its presence in North America is quite considerable, thanks in part to its lounges in Canada.

Canada and the US

Plaza Premium has a solid lounge footprint in Canadian airports. As it stands, there are 14 locations across Canada:

Meanwhile, in the US, there currently are just two locations:

• Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW)
  • Plaza Premium Lounge (Domestic Departures, Terminal E)
• Orlando International Airport (MCO)
  • Plaza Premium Lounge Orlando (Terminal C)

Global

There are some excellent Plaza Premium Lounges in airports across the world, and the quality tends to be better outside of North America. 

As mentioned, most Plaza Premium Lounges are found in Asia. In Hong Kong (HKG) alone, there are four lounges, including a flagship Plaza Premium First Lounge.
