EgyptAir's around-the-clock Terminal 3 lounge by the F gates.

About this lounge

The Alioth Lounge is EgyptAir's flagship Terminal 3 lounge at Cairo, one of the airline's lounges named after stars. It sits airside on the departure level in the direction of the F gates: after clearing immigration and passing through the duty-free shops, turn left toward the F gates and the lounge is on your right-hand side. Open 24 hours, it welcomes EgyptAir first and business class passengers, EgyptAir Star Alliance Gold members travelling on EgyptAir or Star Alliance flights, and Star Alliance Gold members on same-day Star Alliance international flights. Inside you'll find comfortable seating zones, a buffet and a bar, with Wi-Fi and flight information — the most consistent branded experience for EgyptAir and Star Alliance travellers leaving Terminal 3.
