Where we'd actually go.
Sala VIP Black
Sala VIP Black is the standout at ASU — a modern, spacious airside lounge next to gate 4 with a runway view, a hot and cold buffet, a family room and full bar. It opens on DragonPass, making it the easiest premium space to reach for most travellers.
VIP Gold
The VIP GOLD lounge sits airside between gates 1 and 2 and is the only ASU lounge on Priority Pass, also welcoming SkyTeam Elite Plus and business or first-class passengers. Open around the clock, it's the natural pick if you carry Priority Pass.
Sudameris Lounge
The Sudameris Lounge is a private bank-card club after security, built for holders of Sudameris elite Visa Infinite and Mastercard Black cards. A quieter, members-style space with complimentary refreshments if your card opens the door.

How to get into lounges at ASU.
Access at Asunción depends on which lounge you're aiming for, as no single membership opens all three. DragonPass gets you into Sala VIP Black, Priority Pass and SkyTeam status reach the VIP GOLD lounge, and the Sudameris Lounge is reserved for holders of the bank's elite cards. SkyTeam premium-cabin passengers and pay-in guests also have routes in. Check your specific lounge before you clear security.
DragonPass
DragonPass is accepted at Sala VIP Black, the airside lounge next to gate 4. It's the membership route to the largest and most modern lounge at ASU, with a hot buffet, full bar and runway view.
DragonPassPriority Pass
Priority Pass opens the VIP GOLD lounge between gates 1 and 2. It's the only Priority Pass lounge at Asunción, so if you carry the card, this is your space — confirm capacity at busy departure times.
Priority PassAirline & alliance status
SkyTeam Elite Plus passengers, and travellers on a business- or first-class SkyTeam ticket, can use the VIP GOLD lounge. Access follows your tier and cabin rather than a separate purchase.
SkyTeamBank-card lounge
The Sudameris Lounge is a private club for holders of Sudameris elite credit cards, including Visa Infinite and Mastercard Black. If your card qualifies, present it at the door for complimentary entry and refreshments.
Pay-in entry
ASU's lounges are oriented around memberships and bank cards rather than open walk-in sales, so pay-per-visit availability varies by lounge and day. If you don't hold a qualifying membership or card, ask at the desk whether a paid entry is available.
