Onde nós realmente iríamos.
Salon VIP
The SALON VIP on the departure floor is the more equipped of NKC's two lounges, with Wi-Fi, a cold spread, soft drinks and reading material. It opens to SkyTeam Elite Plus members and business- or first-class passengers, making it the natural choice if your ticket or status qualifies.
Ya Marhaba VIP Lounge
The Ya Marhaba VIP Lounge sits opposite gate 5 and sells walk-in paid entry, so you don't need airline status or a lounge membership to get in. Expect complimentary snacks, a cold buffet and soft drinks — the simplest route to a seat away from the gate at Nouakchott.

Salas VIP de Nouakchott–Oumtounsy International Airport por terminal.
Main Terminal
Nouakchott–Oumtounsy operates from a single passenger terminal that handles all departures. Both of NKC's lounges sit here: the SALON VIP on the departure floor (SkyTeam status or premium-cabin access) and the Ya Marhaba VIP Lounge opposite gate 5 (walk-in paid entry). Coverage is modest for a capital-city airport, so know which one matches your ticket before you travel.

Como entrar nas salas VIP em NKC.
Access at Nouakchott is straightforward: there are two lounges and two ways in. The SALON VIP is the status route, opening to SkyTeam Elite Plus members and passengers travelling in business or first class. The Ya Marhaba VIP Lounge is the pay-per-visit route — buy walk-in entry at the door without any membership or airline status. Confirm which lounge matches your ticket before you reach the gate.
SkyTeam status
SkyTeam Elite Plus members are welcome at the SALON VIP on the departure floor. This is the only frequent-flyer access route at Nouakchott, so it's the lounge to head for if you hold qualifying SkyTeam status.
SkyTeamBusiness & First class ticket
A business- or first-class ticket on a SkyTeam carrier gets you into the SALON VIP directly, with no membership required — the simplest route if you're flying premium out of NKC.
SkyTeamWalk-in paid entry
The Ya Marhaba VIP Lounge sells paid entry at the door, so you can pay per visit without airline status or a lounge membership. It's the option for economy passengers and anyone without SkyTeam access.
Step-free access
The SALON VIP offers disabled access on the departure floor. If step-free access matters for your visit, it's the lounge to plan around at Nouakchott.

Match the lounge to your ticket
- —NKC has just two lounges — the SALON VIP for SkyTeam status and premium cabins, and the Ya Marhaba VIP Lounge for walk-in paid entry.
- —If you don't hold SkyTeam Elite Plus or a business/first ticket, the Ya Marhaba VIP Lounge is your way in.
- —Both lounges are in the single passenger terminal, so you won't need to change buildings.
Know the opening hours
- —The SALON VIP runs an afternoon-to-midnight window (roughly 16:00 to 00:00), built around Nouakchott's evening departure bank — not much use for an early flight.
- —If you're departing in the morning, check whether either lounge is open before you rely on it.
- —Nouakchott handles a lot of overnight long-haul departures, so the evening is when the lounges are most likely to be staffed and busy.
Set your expectations
- —These are compact VIP lounges rather than large international flagships — expect Wi-Fi, light refreshments and a quiet seat rather than showers or hot buffets.
- —The SALON VIP offers a cold spread, soft drinks, TV and newspapers; the Ya Marhaba lounge serves complimentary snacks and a cold buffet.
- —Neither lounge lists showers or sleeping facilities, so plan rest around your seat in the lounge.
Plan around airport timing
- —Nouakchott check-in and security can be slow at peak — arrive early and don't count on a long lounge stay.
- —Pay-per-visit at the Ya Marhaba lounge is the most reliable fallback if you arrive without status.
- —Confirm current access and hours with the lounge on the day, as a small-airport schedule can shift.
