Sobre HAJ

Hannover Airport (HAJ) keeps a compact set of lounges across Terminals A and C, all within one connected building. Star Alliance passengers have the widest coverage thanks to two Lufthansa lounges — a Business Lounge in Terminal C and a higher-tier Senator Lounge in Terminal A. The independent Karl-Jatho Lounge in Terminal A is the most flexible option, taking Priority Pass, SkyTeam and Star Alliance, while the airside Melli-Beese Lounge in Terminal C covers Priority Pass and oneworld. The landside Business Lounge, between Terminals A and B before passport control, is the one option open 24 hours — handy for early arrivals and odd-hour departures. Most lounges sit airside after security, so clear the checkpoint first, and always check whether your lounge is in Terminal A or C before you head through.

Best Overall

Karl-Jatho Lounge

The Karl-Jatho Lounge in Terminal A has the widest access of any HAJ lounge — Priority Pass, SkyTeam and Star Alliance all get you in — making it the most flexible choice for most travellers without a specific airline or premium ticket.

Best for Priority Pass

Melli-Beese Lounge

The Melli-Beese Lounge sits airside in Terminal C, opposite Gate 19, and is reachable on Priority Pass or with oneworld status. It serves complimentary snacks, soft drinks and a bar, and is the airside contract option at Hannover.

Best Airline Lounge

Lufthansa Senator Lounge

The Lufthansa Senator Lounge in Terminal A is the higher-tier Lufthansa space at HAJ, serving Star Alliance Gold members and eligible premium-cabin passengers — the most consistent branded experience for Lufthansa Group flyers leaving Hannover.

Best 24-Hour Option

Business Lounge

The Business Lounge sits landside between Terminals A and B, before passport control, and is open around the clock. Reachable on SkyTeam access, it's the option for early arrivals and odd-hour departures when the airside lounges are closed.

Guia de acesso

Como entrar nas salas VIP em HAJ.

Hannover is a compact airport, and its lounges split between airline access and the contract-lounge networks. Star Alliance flyers have the most coverage thanks to two Lufthansa lounges; Priority Pass works at the Karl-Jatho and Melli-Beese lounges; and SkyTeam and oneworld status each reach one lounge. Check whether your lounge is in Terminal A or C, and whether it's landside or airside, before you clear security.

Lounge membership

Priority Pass

Priority Pass is accepted at the Karl-Jatho Lounge in Terminal A and the airside Melli-Beese Lounge in Terminal C. It's the single most useful membership at Hannover if you don't have airline status or a premium ticket.

Priority Pass
Airline status

Star Alliance lounges

Lufthansa runs both a Business Lounge (Terminal C) and a Senator Lounge (Terminal A) at Hannover for Star Alliance passengers. Senator and the Karl-Jatho Lounge also take Star Alliance status, so Star Alliance flyers have the widest airline coverage here.

Star AllianceLufthansa
Airline status

SkyTeam & oneworld

SkyTeam status reaches the Karl-Jatho Lounge and the landside Business Lounge, while oneworld status opens the airside Melli-Beese Lounge in Terminal C. Access follows your eligible flight and frequent-flyer tier.

Business class ticket

A Lufthansa Group business-class ticket gets you into the Lufthansa Business or Senator Lounge directly — the simplest route if you're flying premium with a Star Alliance carrier out of Hannover, with no membership needed.

Dicas de quem entende

Saiba antes de ir.

01

Match the terminal

  • Hannover's lounges split between Terminal A and Terminal C — check which terminal your lounge is in before you head through.
  • The Lufthansa lounges sit airside, up the staircase next to gate A06; the Melli-Beese Lounge is airside opposite Gate 19 in Terminal C.
  • All three terminals (A, B and C) are in one connected building, so moving between them is straightforward.
02

Landside vs airside

  • The 24-hour Business Lounge is landside, between Terminals A and B before passport control — useful if you arrive very early or very late.
  • The Karl-Jatho, Melli-Beese and Lufthansa lounges are airside, so clear security first.
  • If your flight is at an odd hour, the landside Business Lounge is the one most likely to be open.
03

Lead with the right access

  • Star Alliance flyers have the most options at HAJ — two Lufthansa lounges plus the Karl-Jatho Lounge.
  • Priority Pass covers the Karl-Jatho (Terminal A) and Melli-Beese (Terminal C) lounges — the best single membership to carry here.
  • SkyTeam and oneworld status each open one lounge, so confirm your specific lounge before relying on status.
04

Timing & limits

  • The Melli-Beese Lounge has a maximum three-hour stay, so time your visit to your departure.
  • Most lounges run roughly 05:00 to 19:00–20:00; only the Business Lounge is open 24 hours.
  • Hannover is a mid-sized airport, so lounges are calmer than at the big hubs — but the Lufthansa lounges can fill around the morning bank.
