Salon VIP Elegante

Havana's walk-in lounge — pay at the door, no airline status needed.
Salon VIP Elegante is Havana's pay-in departures lounge, located in Terminal 3 after security on the airside departure level. It's the one lounge at HAV that welcomes walk-in pay-in customers, which makes it the key option for travellers without SkyTeam, Star Alliance or oneworld status: rather than needing a specific alliance or a premium cabin, you simply buy entry at the door. That positions it as the natural choice for economy passengers and anyone who wants a calmer place to wait out of the main terminal without holding lounge-eligible status. Inside, the offering follows the same pattern as Havana's other VIP lounges — complimentary snacks and a full complimentary drinks selection of soft drinks, house wine, beer and liquor — in a relaxed setting after security. As a pay-per-visit lounge it isn't part of the Priority Pass or DragonPass networks; the value here is the flexibility of paying for entry on the day, with no membership required.
Crowding · moderate
A reasonable place to wait but not set up for work — no Wi-Fi is listed and power at seats isn't guaranteed. The appeal is the pay-in access and a calmer spot to sit, so treat it as somewhere to relax with a drink rather than to do connected work.
Food and drink is complimentary with your paid entry and on the lighter side — snacks rather than a hot buffet, paired with a full bar. Soft drinks, house wine, beer and liquor are all included, so the day pass buys you a comfortable spot to eat lightly and have a drink before boarding.
