This guide is compiled from airline, alliance and lounge-operator sources plus published access rules from Priority Pass and DragonPass — we haven't independently visited every Clark International Airport lounge yet. 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.

Where we'd actually go.
Marhaba Lounge
The Marhaba Lounge is the most flexible option at Clark — it sits airside on the departure level, accepts DragonPass and oneworld access, and sells a walk-in day pass, so most travellers can get in without specific airline status. It also has the fuller amenity list, including showers, sleep pods and a prayer room.
Marhaba Lounge
Marhaba is the lounge to know if you don't hold airline status — it's purchasable, so you can buy entry for a single visit on DragonPass or at the door, with a hot and cold spread, alcoholic drinks, Wi-Fi and a runway view while you wait.
VIP Lounge
The VIP Lounge serves Star Alliance passengers in the pre-departure area, with a quiet, contemporary space, snacks, hot and cold beverages, alcoholic drinks and workstations — a comfortable spot to settle before a Star Alliance flight from Clark.

Clark International Airport lounges by terminal.
Passenger Terminal
Clark runs from a single passenger terminal, so both of its lounges sit in the same building. The Marhaba Lounge is airside on the 3rd-level departure area, reachable after security on DragonPass, oneworld or a paid day pass. The VIP Lounge is in the pre-departure area for Star Alliance passengers. Match your lounge to your access method rather than to a terminal.

How to get into lounges at CRK.
Clark is a small lounge field with two routes in. The Marhaba Lounge is the broadest option — it takes DragonPass and oneworld and sells a walk-in day pass, so you can pay per visit without airline status. The VIP Lounge is for Star Alliance passengers. Always check your access method, as the two lounges don't share the same entry rules.
DragonPass
DragonPass is accepted at the airside Marhaba Lounge — the single most useful membership at Clark, since it pairs with the lounge that also sells walk-in entry and carries the fuller amenity list.
Walk-in day pass
The Marhaba Lounge is purchasable, so you can buy entry for a single visit rather than holding a membership or status. Booking ahead where possible is usually cheaper and guarantees a spot at busier times.
Airline & alliance lounges
oneworld passengers and eligible status holders can use the Marhaba Lounge, while Star Alliance passengers are served at the VIP Lounge in the pre-departure area. Access follows your ticket and frequent-flyer tier.
Business & First class ticket
A premium-cabin ticket on a oneworld carrier can open the Marhaba Lounge, and a Star Alliance premium ticket can reach the VIP Lounge — the simplest route in if you're flying business or first out of Clark.
Know before you go.
Lead with Marhaba

Mind the hours
