Manado is a compact lounge airport with three options spread across its international and domestic sides. There's no single membership that opens everything: SkyTeam status and Priority Pass cover the international Concordia Lounge, DragonPass and pay-per-visit entry open the domestic Concordia Lounge, and a Garuda or SkyTeam premium ticket reaches the Garuda Indonesia Executive Lounge. Check which side of the terminal your flight departs from before choosing a lounge.
