How to get into lounges at LHE.
Lahore is a membership-and-alliance airport: the airside CIP Lounge takes DragonPass and Priority Pass as well as oneworld, the CAA CIP Lounge is the SkyTeam option, and The Club Lounge covers Star Alliance and oneworld. The PIA Business Plus Lounge is reserved for Pakistan International Airlines premium passengers. Always check whether your lounge is airside or in the departure hall before clearing passport control.
Priority Pass & DragonPass
Priority Pass and DragonPass are both accepted at the airside CIP Lounge in the main terminal — the single most useful route into a Lahore lounge if you don't hold airline status. Check the per-lounge page for current terms and any stay limits.

Know before you go.
Lead with a membership
- —The airside CIP Lounge takes both DragonPass and Priority Pass — the most reliable single route into a Lahore lounge without airline status.
- —Coverage at LHE is split by alliance, so check whether your status is oneworld, SkyTeam or Star Alliance before picking a lounge.
Airside vs departure hall
- —The CIP and CAA CIP lounges are airside, upstairs above passport control — clear immigration and security first.
- —The Club Lounge is in the departure hall on the 3rd floor near Gate 22, so check the location matches your access before you commit.
Know the limits
- —The airside CIP Lounge has a maximum two-hour stay, so time your visit close to boarding if you want the full window.
- —The Club Lounge's published hours are evening-only, so it may not suit a daytime departure — check before relying on it.
Faith and diet
- —The CAA CIP Lounge has a prayer room and serves halal and vegetarian snacks — useful if those matter to your visit.
- —Alcohol is uncommon at Lahore; The Club Lounge is the option that lists alcoholic beverages among its facilities.
