About this lounge

Escape Lounge (Terminal 2) is the contract lounge for Terminal 2 (T2) at Manchester Airport, airside on the mezzanine level above Duty Free. Anyone can get in: DragonPass and Priority Pass members use their membership, and everyone else can pay for a visit. The lounge serves a complimentary hot buffet and snacks, with soft drinks, house wine, beer and spirits included; premium drinks and some food cost extra. Large windows look out over the runway.

Manchester Airport lists new hours from 25 October 2026: 03:00–18:30 on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday, and 03:00–20:00 on Tuesday and Friday, so an evening departure may now fall after closing.
