Prime Class Lounge
★3.2(398 reviews)ESB · Main Terminal · airside
Esenboğa's most flexible lounge — Priority Pass, DragonPass and SkyTeam, with showers and runway views.
The Prime Class Lounge sits airside in the international departures area at Ankara Esenboğa, reached one floor up by escalator after passport control and security. It is the most flexible way into a lounge at ESB, welcoming Priority Pass and DragonPass members as well as SkyTeam status passengers. The decor leans on muted tones, comfortable leather chairs and modern accents, with soft warm lighting and an elevated position that gives panoramic runway views. There is a hot and cold food selection, a bar with house wine, beer and spirits, shower facilities, and a TV room with flight monitors to keep you informed. Noise levels are generally low with occasional bursts during peak flight times, making it a polished and practical choice for most international departures from the Turkish capital.
Crowding · busy at peak
A workable pre-flight spot with Wi-Fi and comfortable seating you can use for a laptop. Fine for email and light work, though it is not a dedicated business lounge.
A complimentary hot and cold spread of snacks and finger food, served alongside a bar with house wine, beer and spirits plus soft drinks. The selection suits a quick bite or a relaxed drink before an international departure.
