Calgary's Air Canada lounge — Star Alliance premium passengers and Gold members.

About this lounge

The Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge is the airline lounge at Calgary, in the Domestic Terminal's Concourse C near gate 50. It welcomes Air Canada and Star Alliance premium-cabin passengers along with eligible Star Alliance Gold members travelling on a qualifying flight, so access follows your ticket and frequent-flyer tier rather than a paid membership or walk-in pass. As Air Canada's branded space at YYC, it's the most consistent airline lounge in the airport, with a comfortable setting to relax, snacks and finger food, and a bar serving house wine, beer and liquor at no charge. For Air Canada and Star Alliance flyers leaving Calgary, it's the natural choice — a calmer environment than the terminal floor ahead of a domestic departure. Travellers who don't qualify can instead use the nearby Elevation Lounge in Concourse B on DragonPass, Priority Pass or a paid day pass.

A comfortable place to work before an Air Canada flight, with Wi-Fi and seating you can use for a laptop. Fine for email and light work rather than long focused sessions, with quieter zones away from the bar.

Food & drink

A lighter food offering of complimentary snacks and finger food, with a bar serving house wine, beer and liquor at no charge and complimentary soft drinks. It's geared to pre-flight refreshment before a domestic departure rather than a full meal.
