Hey fellow travelers, it’s Olivia here! I’ve hopped from one airport to another, and I can’t tell you enough about the benefits of VIP lounges. They can truly be a haven during your travels! Let me break down the VIP lounges at Calgary Airport (YYC) for you:
Terminal 1
Air Canada Maple Leaf Lounge: Located in Concourse C. Open from 5:15 am to 0:30 am. Here’s what you get: complimentary drinks and snacks, reading materials, Wi-Fi, and workstations. Now, how to get in? You can be a member of Air Canada Maple Leaf Club or United Club, fly Air Canada executive class, hold Altitude Super Elite 100K, Elite 75K, Elite 50K, or Elite 35K membership. If you’re flying first or executive class on Star Alliance airlines, have a Star Alliance Gold status, or hold an American Express AeroplanPlus Platinum or Corporate Platinum card, you’re good to go!
Chinook Lounge: Nestled in Concourse A. Available from 6:00 am to 10:45 pm (max stay is 3 hours). You’ll find computers, refreshments, drinks, conference facilities, Wi-Fi, TVs, AC, and various newspapers and magazines. To access, flash your Priority Pass, Lounge Club, or Diners Club membership.
