First Class Lounge
SWA · Main Terminal · airside
SWA's pay-per-visit lounge — buy a walk-in day pass at the door near gate 11, no membership needed.
The First Class Lounge is the pay-per-visit option at Jieyang Chaoshan Airport, sitting airside in the Main Terminal near departure gate 11. Unlike the China Southern Sky Pearl Club, it accepts walk-in pay-in customers, so you can simply buy a day pass at the door without DragonPass, airline status or any membership — handy if you're not part of a lounge programme. The lounge serves a complimentary hot buffet alongside snacks and soft drinks, with Wi-Fi, newspapers, air conditioning and flight-information screens to keep you settled before departure. It opens early at 06:00 and runs until the last flight, with a maximum stay of around two hours; children under two are admitted free. It's a straightforward, comfortable space rather than an extensively appointed flagship lounge, and no alcohol is served.
