Where we'd actually go.
Sky Hub Lounge
The Sky Hub Lounge is the most widely accessible lounge at Gimpo — it's the one airside International Terminal lounge open on DragonPass and Priority Pass, so it works for travellers without airline status. Complimentary snacks, soft drinks, house wine, beer and liquor, with a three-hour stay.
Korean Air Lounge (International)
The Korean Air Lounge in the International Terminal serves SkyTeam Elite Plus and Korean Air premium-cabin passengers on the 4th floor near Gate 34. It's the better-equipped of the two Korean Air SkyTeam lounges, with alcohol, a conference room and a business centre.
Asiana Lounge
The Asiana Lounge is Gimpo's Star Alliance option, open to Star Alliance Gold and Asiana business-class passengers. A calm, minimalist space with complimentary snacks, soft drinks and house wine and beer before short-haul international departures.
Korean Air Lounge (Domestic)
The Korean Air Lounge in the Domestic Terminal is the go-to for SkyTeam Elite Plus and Korean Air premium passengers flying within Korea, sitting on the 4th floor near Gate 11. A quiet, no-frills space to unwind before a domestic hop.

Gimpo International Airport lounges by terminal.
International Terminal
Gimpo's International Terminal handles short-haul routes to Tokyo Haneda, Osaka, Shanghai, Beijing and Taipei, and holds most of the airport's lounges. Korean Air and Asiana run their own SkyTeam, oneworld and Star Alliance lounges here, and the Sky Hub Lounge is the single contract lounge open on DragonPass and Priority Pass. Most sit airside on the upper floors after immigration and security.

How to get into lounges at GMP.
Gimpo is primarily an airline-lounge airport — Korean Air and Asiana run their own spaces, so your alliance status and cabin class matter most here. SkyTeam status reaches the Korean Air lounges, oneworld reaches a separate Korean Air lounge, and Star Alliance reaches Asiana. The one membership-friendly option is the Sky Hub Lounge in the International Terminal, which takes DragonPass and Priority Pass.
Airline & alliance lounges
Korean Air runs SkyTeam lounges in both the domestic and international terminals (SkyTeam Elite Plus or a Korean Air business/first ticket) plus a separate oneworld lounge (oneworld Sapphire or business class). Asiana runs the Star Alliance lounge (Star Alliance Gold or Asiana business class).
SkyTeam
oneworld
Star AllianceBusiness & First class ticket
A business- or first-class ticket on Korean Air or Asiana (or an alliance partner) gets you into that airline's Gimpo lounge directly — the simplest route if you're flying premium, with no membership needed.
Korean Air
AsianaDragonPass & Priority Pass
The Sky Hub Lounge in the International Terminal is the one Gimpo lounge in the contract-lounge networks, accepting both DragonPass and Priority Pass. If you don't hold airline status, this is your route in on the international side.

Match the lounge to your alliance
- —Gimpo's lounges are airline-run, so your alliance and cabin matter more than any single membership.
- —Korean Air covers SkyTeam and, in a separate lounge, oneworld; Asiana covers Star Alliance.
- —If you have no status, the Sky Hub Lounge on DragonPass or Priority Pass is the international-side fallback.
Domestic vs international
- —Gimpo is a major domestic hub — but only the Korean Air Domestic lounge serves that side.
- —Most lounges are in the International Terminal, clustered on the 4th-floor airside level.
- —Connecting domestic-to-international means changing terminals, so plan the transfer time.
Mind the hours
- —Gimpo lounges keep daytime hours rather than running 24/7 — most open around dawn and close by 20:00–21:00.
- —The international routes are short-haul to Japan, China and Taiwan, so departure banks are concentrated; arrive with time to spare.
- —Late-evening departures may land after some lounges have closed — check the hours on the lounge page.
Set expectations
- —Gimpo's lounges are functional and calm rather than flagship-luxurious — comfortable, but not on the scale of Incheon's.
- —Food tends to be snacks and a light buffet rather than full dining, with house wine and beer at most lounges.
- —For a bigger lounge experience, Incheon (ICN) across the city has a far wider selection.
