Pune Airport Lounges
Pune Airport · Pune, India
Pune Airport (PNQ) keeps its lounge scene simple — every lounge here is an Elysian, all reached on DragonPass. One sits airside in the new integrated terminal for international departures, and two more serve domestic flyers airside in Terminal 1. There are no airline or Priority Pass lounges, so DragonPass or a paid day pass is the way in.

Where we'd actually go.
Elysian Lounge - International
The Elysian Lounge - International is the only lounge on the international side at Pune, airside past immigration in the new integrated terminal building. It runs on DragonPass, serves a hot and cold spread with wine, beer and spirits, and is the natural pre-flight stop before a long-haul or regional international departure.
Elysian Executive Lounge - Domestic
The Elysian Executive Lounge - Domestic sits airside in Terminal 1 by Gate 6, next to the kids' play zone, making it the easiest domestic option if you're travelling with children. DragonPass access, a hot Indian-leaning buffet, and a bar with wine, beer and spirits round it out.
Elysian Lounge - Domestic
The Elysian Lounge - Domestic is the calmer domestic Terminal 1 option, airside behind the KFC near Gates 2 and 3. It's a quiet, modern space on DragonPass with hot and cold food; note it doesn't serve alcohol, so it leans more relaxed than the Executive lounge nearby.

How to get into lounges at PNQ.
Pune is a DragonPass airport — all three Elysian lounges are reached on a DragonPass membership, and there are no airline, alliance or Priority Pass lounges here. If you don't hold DragonPass, the lounges also sell entry as a paid day pass, so you can still pay per visit. Check whether you're flying international (new integrated terminal) or domestic (Terminal 1), as the lounges are split between them and don't connect airside.
DragonPass
DragonPass is the primary way in at Pune — it's accepted at all three Elysian lounges, the international lounge in the new integrated terminal and both domestic lounges in Terminal 1. It's the single most useful membership to carry here.
DragonPassWalk-in day pass
The Elysian lounges also sell paid entry, so you can buy a day pass and pay per visit without a membership. Booking ahead where possible is usually cheaper than paying at the door, and there's a two-hour maximum stay.
Cards that include DragonPass
DragonPass is bundled with a range of credit cards and bank programmes. If your card includes DragonPass lounge access, it covers the Elysian lounges at Pune — check your card's terms and guest allowance before you travel.

Lead with DragonPass

International vs domestic
- —The international lounge is in the new integrated terminal, airside past immigration near Departure Gate 1A; the two domestic lounges are airside in Terminal 1.
- —The terminals don't share airside space, so use the lounge in the terminal you're actually flying from.
- —If you're connecting domestic-to-international, plan for the terminal change rather than expecting one lounge to cover both.
Picking a domestic lounge
- —Travelling with kids? The Elysian Executive Lounge is by Gate 6 next to the kids' play zone in Terminal 1.

Food and timing

- —Hot food is freshest at the start of a meal service — arrive a little before the rush for the best of it.
- —Flight announcements can be soft inside the lounge, so keep an eye on the flight-information screens.
