Star Alliance inaugurates first Asian lounge in Guangzhou

First and Business Class passengers flying with a Star Alliance member airline, as well as Star Alliance Gold status members, can now enjoy a new exclusive lounge in Asia. This is made possible by the opening of the alliance’s first dedicated lounge on the continent, located at Baiyun International Airport (CAN) in China. The brand-new space, located on the upper level of the current GBIA Terminal 1’s international departure area, opened to premium guests and elite-status members on November 21. The lounge offers a relaxing and comfortable space for travelers to work quietly, unwind, and freshen up before heading off on their Star Alliance member flight. With an open layout and spacious design, the first Star Alliance branded lounge in Asia is open 24 hours a day and has a capacity of up to 100 guests across its 750 square meters. The glass facade provides views of the tarmac and allows natural light to fill the space. Practical features, including workstations and comfortable seating areas, create a relaxing environment for business travelers to work and rest.<br/>
