PLAZA Premium Lounge has arrived in Singapore with the launch of the new independent lounge in Singapore Changi Airport yesterday.
Located in the Departure Transit Hall of Terminal 1, the lounge spans over 650m2 and provides over 140 seats, including Plaza Premium’s signature Honeycomb seating.
It is also equipped with three private resting suites, six shower rooms with amenities, two VIP rooms, as well as an area for massage and nail care services.
Plaza Premium Lounge founder and CEO, Song Hoi See, told TTG Asia e-Daily that the company prides itself on its 17 years of experience specialising in airport lounges, tailoring each lounge to client requirements.
“Singapore Changi Airport is a major South-east Asian hub, with 70 to 80 per cent of passengers being transit passengers. (Hence), we are providing comfortable napping areas where passengers can take a power nap, and private Honeycomb seats where people can work,” he said.
The new lounge introduces live cooking stations, where guests can watch chefs prepare local dishes such as laksa and chicken rice.
While the independent lounge is popular with corporate and airline clients, it remains a new concept to much of the travelling population, as they are unaware the lounge is open to all, Song said.
However, this is not stopping Plaza Premium from embarking on a rapid worldwide expansion.
As part of a US$40 million global development plan, the new Singapore lounge joins the newly opened lounge at London Heathrow Terminal 4, as well as upcoming openings in Phnom Penh, Siem Reap and Salalah in Oman.
Plaza Premium is also opening an airport transit hotel in Terminal 1 of Changi Airport. Due mid-September, the resort-themed hotel will have more than 60 rooms.
