Paid Entry

Cairo's pay-in lounge in Terminal 2 — Priority Pass or a walk-in fee for any passenger.

About this lounge

The First Class Lounge in Cairo Terminal 2 is operated by Plaza Premium together with CAC and EAS, and it's the terminal's main pay-per-visit lounge. Located airside after immigration, it welcomes Priority Pass members and also sells walk-in entry to all passengers for a fee, regardless of class of service — so you don't need airline status or a specific membership to get in. The space follows the familiar Plaza Premium template, with comfortable seating zones, a hot and cold buffet, a bar and Wi-Fi to settle in before an international departure. For travellers without an alliance or airline lounge, it's the most flexible way into a lounge in Terminal 2.
