Blue Sky Lounge
★4.6(3,522 reviews)BPN
A tranquil SkyTeam retreat in Balikpapan with a TV room and quiet smoking room.
The Blue Sky Lounge sits inside Sultan Aji Muhammad Sulaiman International Airport (BPN), Balikpapan's gateway in East Kalimantan, and serves SkyTeam passengers. The decor blends modern minimalism with subtle Indonesian motifs, and a muted palette of beige and blue keeps the room feeling calm. Soft, warm lighting and generally low noise make it a comfortable place to unwind or focus before a flight. The lounge is laid out with cosy seating areas, a dedicated TV room and a quiet smoking room, so you can pick the spot that suits you. For SkyTeam status holders and eligible premium-cabin flyers leaving Balikpapan, it's a peaceful alternative to the main terminal.
