Galeão's DragonPass lounge — GOL Smiles airside on the south pier with a modern, relaxing feel.

About this lounge

Lounge GOL Smiles sits airside in Rio de Janeiro–Galeão's Terminal 2, on the south pier. From the security control you pass through the duty free shop, then take the stairs or elevator up to the 3rd floor. It's GOL's branded lounge — the GOL Premium Lounge, also marketed as the GOL Smiles Lounge — and at Galeão it's reachable on DragonPass. GOL's lounges are known for a modern, relaxing design, and this one offers the comforts you'd expect before a flight: a food and drinks spread, a bar, comfortable seating and Wi-Fi. It's one of two GOL Smiles lounges we track at GIG — this airside south-pier location is the DragonPass route, while a separate GOL Smiles domestic lounge near the domestic gates is the Priority Pass option.
