Monastir's only lounge — Priority Pass, DragonPass, walk-in or Amex, near Gate 12.

About this lounge

The Primeclass CIP Lounge is the single lounge at Monastir Habib Bourguiba International Airport, run by TAV (the operator behind the Primeclass brand across Tunisia and Turkey). It sits airside in the International Terminal, past security and passport control, in the boarding area near Gate 12, and is open to passengers departing on international flights. Because Monastir has no airline or alliance lounge, this independent lounge is the one option for everyone — and it keeps access broad: Priority Pass and DragonPass members are both welcome, anyone can buy a walk-in day pass, and eligible American Express Platinum and Centurion cardholders may be covered. Inside, expect an open buffet of snacks with beer and wine, complimentary internet, TVs and flight-information screens, plus a prayer room and Meet & Assist services such as priority check-in and an escort to the gate. It's a calm, modern space to settle into before a flight rather than a large flagship lounge, which suits Monastir's seasonal charter and holiday traffic well.

Quiet areasGenerally quiet throughout, away from the buffet.

A workable spot for email and light tasks before a flight, with complimentary internet and a quiet, low-noise environment. It isn't a dedicated business lounge, so plan on short sessions rather than long focused work.

Food & drink

An open buffet of fresh snacks and light bites, served alongside beer and wine and the usual soft drinks, tea and coffee. The spread is geared to a pre-flight break rather than a full meal, in keeping with a compact CIP lounge at a seasonal airport.
