How to get into lounges at CKY.
Conakry has one lounge, so access is straightforward: the Salon VIP Nimba in the International Terminal takes DragonPass and Priority Pass, sells pay-in entry at the door, and welcomes premium-cabin and eligible alliance status passengers. Whichever route you use, the lounge is airside — clear security and passport control first.
DragonPass
DragonPass is accepted at the Salon VIP Nimba (DragonPass code N00648), the single lounge at Conakry. Present your DragonPass card with your boarding pass after security and passport control to use the lounge before your flight.
DragonPassPriority Pass
Priority Pass works at the Salon VIP Nimba in the International Terminal. Show a valid Priority Pass membership with your boarding pass at the door; guest and visit rules follow your Priority Pass plan.
Priority PassWalk-in / pay-in entry
The Salon VIP Nimba also welcomes pay-in guests, so you can buy entry for a single visit without any membership or status. This is the simplest route if you don't hold DragonPass or Priority Pass — just pay at the lounge.
Airline & alliance status
Premium-cabin passengers and eligible alliance status holders also use the Salon VIP Nimba. Because it is Conakry's only lounge, oneworld, SkyTeam and Star Alliance premium travellers all share this space rather than separate branded lounges; access follows your ticket and tier.
