Paid Entry

Hongqiao's Air China flagship — Star Alliance premium passengers, with cooked-to-order meals.

About this lounge

The V02 Air China Premium lounge is Shanghai Hongqiao's flagship airline lounge, situated on the fourth floor of Terminal 1's international departures. It welcomes premium-cabin passengers travelling with Air China and Star Alliance partner airlines, so access follows your ticket and frequent-flyer tier rather than a lounge membership. The catering is a notch above the airport's independent lounges: complimentary snacks, a hot buffet and cooked-to-order meals, paired with soft drinks and a full bar of house wine, beer and liquor. For Star Alliance travellers connecting through or departing internationally from Hongqiao, it's the most consistent branded-airline experience at the airport, with the comforts you'd expect from a flag-carrier lounge before a longer flight.
