Plaza Premium Group will open the Plaza Premium Lounge Nagoya (Domestic Departures) in the domestic restricted area at Chubu Centrair International Airport on September 7.
The lounge covers approximately 490 square meters and offers 149 seats. Its design incorporates elements that evoke Japan and Nagoya, including a reception wall inspired by the shachihoko, a traditional Nagoya castle ornament. Seating options include counter seats overlooking the airport corridor through glass walls, table seating for work or meetings, and sofas for quiet relaxation.
In addition to beverages and snacks, the lounge will offer beer and highball dispensers as well as a coffee machine. For a limited time, it will feature Asahi Beer’s “Tornado Dispenser,” which automatically fills a glass with beer from the bottom.
Initially, access will be available to elite members of All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Japan Airlines (JAL), as well as selected credit cardholders. Priority Pass and LoungeKey members will not initially be eligible. The lounge will be open from 6:00 a.m. until the departure of the last flight.
Founded in Hong Kong in 1998, Plaza Premium Group is an airport hospitality company operating lounges, VIP services, transit hotels, and other businesses at 600 airports across 150 countries and regions worldwide.
