Hongqiao Terminal 1's most flexible lounge — DragonPass and Priority Pass under one roof.

About this lounge

The V03 VIP Lounge is the most flexible lounge at Shanghai Hongqiao, the only one to accept both DragonPass and Priority Pass. It sits airside on the fourth floor of Terminal 1 — after the security check, take the escalator up. The decor leans contemporary Chinese, with warm wood tones, soft lighting and seating arranged for both privacy and quiet conversation, and large windows look out over the tarmac. There's a hot buffet alongside snacks and soft drinks, plus alcoholic beverages, Wi-Fi, computer access and luggage storage. The atmosphere is calm and rarely crowded, making it a comfortable place to settle before a flight. A maximum stay of around two hours applies, and the lounge runs daily from 06:30 to 20:00.
