Lusaka's most flexible lounge — DragonPass, Star Alliance, oneworld or walk-in.

About this lounge

The Pearl Lounge is the headline lounge at Lusaka's Kenneth Kaunda International Airport, sitting airside on level 2 near gate 4, reached after passport control and the security check. It's the most flexible way in at LUN: DragonPass members, Star Alliance Gold passengers and oneworld Sapphire passengers are all welcome, and walk-in entry is sold for those without status or a membership. The lounge blends modern African design with contemporary comfort — warm, earthy tones, soft LED lighting and a mix of seating pods and ergonomic chairs that balance privacy with social space. Practically, it offers a hot and cold buffet, a bar with house wine, beer and spirits (premium drinks are sold separately), Wi-Fi, printing, a children's play area and flight-information screens. A maximum stay of four hours applies, which is worth keeping in mind on longer connections.

A comfortable spot to get a little work done before a flight, with Wi-Fi, printing and a mix of seating you can use for a laptop. Fine for email and light tasks, though it isn't a dedicated business lounge.
