Saphire Lounge
★4.3(4 reviews)PGK
Pangkalpinang's SkyTeam lounge — Elite Plus and premium-cabin passengers, by the gates.
The Saphire Lounge by the departure gates is the SkyTeam-aligned option at Depati Amir Airport. It's open to SkyTeam Elite Plus status holders and to passengers flying in business or first class on an eligible SkyTeam flight, sitting in the departure-gate waiting area so you're close to boarding when your flight is called. The lounge offers Wi-Fi, a cold-food selection alongside complimentary snacks and soft drinks, plus newspapers and magazines to pass the time, and it's noted as having step-free access for travellers with reduced mobility. This is an access-by-ticket lounge rather than a pay-in one: there's no walk-in day pass or DragonPass route here, so it's aimed squarely at SkyTeam premium passengers. If you don't hold SkyTeam status or a premium-cabin ticket, the other Saphire Lounge in the domestic terminal is the pay-per-visit alternative, reachable on DragonPass or a day pass.
Crowding · rarely busy
A calm place to answer a few emails before boarding, with Wi-Fi available, though it's a small departure-gate lounge rather than a work-focused space, and power at seats isn't confirmed in our data.
A light cold-food offering rather than a hot buffet: a cold-food selection with complimentary snacks, alongside soft drinks. Enough to settle in and have a bite before your flight, with the lounge's calm and proximity to the gates the main draw.
Dietary: Vegetarian snack options likely — confirm on the day
