A calm, batik-accented SkyTeam lounge in Kualanamu's international departure hall.

About this lounge

The Saphire Mandai Lounge offers a calm retreat from the bustling international departure hall at Medan Kualanamu. Open to SkyTeam passengers, its decor blends modern minimalism with subtle Indonesian accents — warm wood tones and batik-inspired textiles — while soft, ambient lighting keeps the atmosphere soothing. A buffet and bar cover food and drink, and a TV room provides a livelier corner for sports fans, while quieter zones suit unwinding or light work. Noise levels are generally low and the lounge stays clean and orderly, though it can get moderately busy during peak hours. Overall it balances function with a genuine touch of local culture before an international flight.
