Cathay Pacific has opened a new lounge at Vancouver International
Airport.
Located in the International Terminal,
between departure gates D66 and D67, the new lounge, designed by
London-based Studioilse,
measures 510 square metres and has a seating capacity of 108
people.
“We aim to offer the very
best traveller experience when flying Cathay Pacific and we
believe this spectacular new lounge is a reflection of how
important this market is to the airline,” said Nick Hays, Cathay
Pacific’s Vice President Canada. “We hope our guests will enjoy
taking in the iconic views of Vancouver's coastal mountains as
they say farewell to the city and use this space as a tranquil
haven that sets the mood for their outbound flights to New York,
Hong Kong, China or beyond to our global network.”
Natural sunlight filters through the windows; bespoke
chairs and side tables with in-built lamps and sockets are placed
by the glass so passengers can enjoy views of the airport runway
and mountains beyond.
Travellers can take advantage of complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the lounge and three individual
workstations with iMacs and printers in The Bureau.
Dining
is a focal part of the Cathay Pacific lounge experience and
Vancouver’s lounge features the signature Noodle Bar, which offers
a selection of soup including wonton noodle soup, dan dan noodle
soup and authentic Hong Kong-style fish ball noodle soup. Another
dining highlight is The Pantry, where passengers can enjoy cold
cuts, a selection of cheese, salads, western hot food, fruits,
desserts and tapas.
The lounge is open to First and Business
Class passengers travelling on Cathay Pacific and members of the
Marco Polo Club with Silver Card status or above and members of
all tiers who earn lounge passes and/or their friends and family,
including oneworld members with Sapphire status or above.
The
Cathay Pacific Lounge is open daily from 10:30 to 15:00 and
20:00 to 02:00, but adjusted seasonally according to the
Cathay Pacific flight schedule.
