After visiting Asiana Lounge and KAL Lounge before my flight from Busan to Tokyo, I went to the third Priority Pass lounge at the airport – Sky Hub Lounge.
The Sky Hub Lounge is, unlike the other two lounges, located on the main departures floor. More precisely, it is between gates 9 and 10.
Lounge Overview
While the Sky Hub Lounge was considerably smaller than the other two lounges, I didn’t find that to be an issue since, at least at the time of my visit, there were plenty of seats open.
Across from the reception, behind a wall, there was a seating space with some low tables, chairs, and benches.
On the other side of the lounge, to the right of the reception, there was another seating area with some more tables, as well as comfortable pairs of sofa chairs. There was also a rack with reading materials.
Along the lounge’s window was a counter which offered views of the apron. And, there were half-a-dozen dining tables in the middle of the lounge.
Finally, there was a very well-stocked buffet area.
Food and Drinks Selection
Similar to my experience in Seoul last year, the food and drinks selection in the Sky Hub Lounge was much better than at the Asiana Lounge (and KAL Lounge).
There were some cereals and rice cakes. And, there were also the usual cup noodles and toasts.
I found it quite strange that all the cup noodles were open – while it might have made it a bit more convenient for the visitors to make them, I am not sure about the hygienic point of view…
Then, there was a counter with fruits, salads, and a DIY bibimbap station.
What impressed me the most, though, was the selection of hot dishes.
Two kinds of soup – Korean beef and mushroom – were offered.
Several main dishes including fried rice, spaghetti, and chicken were offered as well.
As for drinks, there was the obligatory coffee machine.
There was also a soda dispenser, beer on tap, as well as ingredients (and instructions) to make “lemon beer.”
Finally, there was a fridge with some canned drinks, bottled water, and grape juice.
Sky Hub Lounge Busan International Terminal Summary
The lounge was considerably better stocked than the Asiana and Korean Air lounges. I was especially impressed with the selection of warm meals.
Unlike the other two lounges, this one is certainly worth a visit if you have Priority Pass membership and some time to spare before your international flight out of Busan.
Those cup of noodles were open so people would not put them in their bags and walk out with them.
Thanks – that makes sense!
Thanks for this review . Make it easier for me to select one of the three lounge .
Never been to a lounge, but it will be a first time later this year^^ I wonder why anyone would eat cup noodles when theres is so much better stuff to stuff yourself with.
