Dalian's clearest walk-in option in the international area — pay in, no status needed.

About this lounge

The International First Class Lounge gives travellers a way into a Dalian lounge without airline status or a membership card. Set in the International Terminal opposite gate 26, it welcomes pay-in guests, making it the clearest walk-in option on the international side of Zhoushuizi International Airport. The food and drink offer is reasonable for a pay-in lounge: complimentary snacks and a hot buffet, with soft drinks, house wine and beer to accompany them. It sits in the same international area as the alliance-access First Class Lounge, so if you are flying international out of Dalian but don't hold eligible status, this is the simplest route into a lounge before your flight.

A comfortable place to settle and get a little work done before a flight. Fine for light tasks, though it isn't a dedicated business lounge.

Food & drink
