Where we'd actually go.
Business VIP Lounge
The Business VIP Lounge is the standout at JZH — a calm, Tibetan-inspired space airside near Departure Gate 4 with mountain views, snacks, hot and cold soft drinks and Wi-Fi. It opens on DragonPass, making it the easiest membership-based way in at this small airport.
VIP Service Center
The VIP Service Center is a walk-in, pay-in lounge airside on the 2nd floor opposite Boarding Gate 4. With Wi-Fi, snacks, soft drinks, a VIP reception counter and a fast channel, it's a straightforward option when you don't hold a lounge membership.
First Class Lounge
The First Class Lounge is a second pay-in option, sited opposite Gate 1 and open to walk-up guests. It's a useful fallback if the other lounges are busy or sited away from your gate, with snacks and soft drinks before departure.
