Vientiane Airport VIP Lounge

Wattay's fullest lounge — DragonPass or a walk-in day pass, with food, a bar and showers.
The Vientiane Airport VIP Lounge is the main lounge at Wattay International, sitting airside in the International Terminal after security and immigration. It's the more complete of the two lounges we track at VTE, offering hot and cold food, a bar serving alcohol, shower facilities, Wi-Fi and power at most seats — a comfortable place to wait out the gap before an international departure from the Laotian capital. Access is on DragonPass, or you can buy a walk-in day pass at around US$31 per guest for a two-hour stay. One quirk to plan for: DragonPass guests must first redeem a lounge voucher at the VIP Express Check-in counter, located before security opposite Check-in Counter 23, before heading through to the lounge. The lounge is open daily from 06:30 to 22:00.
Crowding · varies by time of day
A workable spot before a flight, with Wi-Fi and power at most seats. Fine for email and light work, though it's a compact regional lounge rather than a dedicated business space.
The VIP Lounge serves both hot and cold food alongside a bar with alcohol — a fuller spread than you'll find at most small regional airports. It's the better of the two Wattay lounges for a proper bite before an international flight, with the menu rotating through the day.
