Cathay lounge reopens

Cathay Pacific Airways has reopened The Pier First Class Lounge at Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA), following an extensive renovation.

The 2,000sq m lounge is located at Gate 63 in the North West concourse.

With a maximum seating capacity of 231, the lounge is a brand new design ethos by Studioilse, the London-based studio led by Ilse Crawford.

With a greater focus on food and beverages, the lounge features The Dining Room – à la carte restaurant for up to 100 people at one time.  It offers table service with freshly prepared dishes made-to-order by the chef.  At The Pantry, passengers can enjoy delicacies with items changing throughout the day.

Wellbeing is the core focus of The Pier First Class Lounge.  Complimentary foot massage is introduced for the first time.  The Pier is fitted with a total of eight suites, each furnished with a comfortable daybed, a reading light, a mirror, and heavy curtains for added personal privacy.  The adjustable lighting and blinds allow passengers to control the comfort of their own environment.  There are 14 showers. 

The Library provides a comfortable and quiet place for reading and relaxing while the Bureau offers a home office environment with six iMac computers.   www.cathaypacific.com
