About KMQ

Komatsu Airport (KMQ) is the gateway to Kanazawa and Japan's Hokuriku coast, a compact single-terminal airport handling mostly domestic flights to Tokyo, Sapporo, Fukuoka and Okinawa plus a small number of international and charter services. It has three lounges, all inside the one terminal. Sky Lounge Hakusan, on the second floor before immigration, is the independent option — it welcomes pay-in guests and holders of various Japanese-issued credit cards, making it the only Komatsu lounge open without airline status. The JAL Sakura Lounge near Gate 1, remodelled in 2018 in a calm Japanese style, serves Japan Airlines and oneworld passengers, while the ANA Lounge near Gate 2 looks after premium ANA and Star Alliance flyers. There's no Priority Pass or DragonPass here, so your way in is either an airline ticket and status or a pay-in entry at Sky Lounge Hakusan.

How we compile this guide

Sourced, never sponsored.

Nothing here is a paid placement, and the guide is updated as lounges open, close, renovate or change access policies. Read more about how we verify lounge data.

Insider tips

Know before you go.

01

Match the lounge to your airline

  • Komatsu's two airline lounges are airline-specific — the JAL Sakura Lounge is for Japan Airlines / oneworld passengers, the ANA Lounge for ANA / Star Alliance.
  • If you're not flying JAL or ANA in a premium cabin or with status, Sky Lounge Hakusan is the lounge to head for.
  • The JAL lounge sits near Gate 1 and the ANA lounge near Gate 2 — easy to find once you know your departure gate.
02

Pay-in without status

  • Sky Lounge Hakusan takes pay-in guests, so you can buy your way in without airline status or a membership card.
  • It also admits holders of various Japanese-issued credit cards — worth checking if your card includes airport lounge access in Japan.
  • Soft drinks are complimentary at Sky Lounge Hakusan; snacks and alcoholic drinks are available to buy.
03

Know the layout

  • Komatsu is a small single-terminal airport — distances are short and you won't have far to walk to any lounge.
  • Sky Lounge Hakusan is on the second floor, before and opposite immigration; the airline lounges sit by the departure gates.
  • In the Japanese domestic style, the lounges are before the security checkpoint, so allow time to clear security afterwards.
04

Timing & hours

  • Sky Lounge Hakusan runs roughly 07:00 to 19:30, tracking the airport's domestic flight schedule.
  • Komatsu's flights are concentrated around the morning and evening Tokyo and Sapporo banks — the lounges are busiest then.
  • As a regional airport, KMQ is quiet between peaks, so a mid-day visit is usually relaxed.
