Travel Guide on PAGSS Premium Lounge (Terminal 3)
If you're looking for a comfortable place to relax before your flight, consider checking out the PAGSS Premium Lounge located in Terminal 3 of Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA). For just $25 per head (or P1,500), you can enjoy a variety of amenities and refreshing food and drink offerings.
The lounge opens at 5:00 AM in the morning and operates until 12:00 MN, providing early morning travelers with a comfortable place to start their journey. There is also a fairly nice view by the window, offering a glimpse of the vastness of the sky with planes docked.
One of the standout features of the PAGSS Premium Lounge is its large seating capacity. There about 3 sections in the lounge. The first one is where the sofa chairs are found. The second one is more for those who want to work as they wait for their flights. The third one is semi-private behind the sliding doors.
The lounge also offers internet access, making it easy to stay connected and charge your devices. With plugs available almost anywhere (at least about 85% of the spots), you won't have to worry about running out of battery. Plus, for those who want to catch a quick nap, there are high-back sofa chairs that are perfect for dozing off while waiting for your flight. Just be sure to keep an eye on the time so you don't miss your boarding call.
How's the quality and selection of food in PAGSS?
When it comes to food, the PAGSS Premium Lounge does not disappoint. During my visit, I was able to enjoy a variety of dishes, including taco, congee with reasonable condiments for multiple iterations possible, bite-size burger patty, salsa on bread, Japanese rice and gyudon, and asado + bola-bola siopao for options. For dessert, there were several options to choose from, such as fresh fruits, banana bread, and chocolate mousse.
Those looking to imbibe will also appreciate the drink selection, which includes beer, red wine, and black label among others. Also, if you're a coffee lover, be sure to check out the Nescafe Milano machine that produces freshly ground coffee. I had two servings of the coffee, that was how great it was!
Overall, the PAGSS Premium Lounge is a great option for travelers looking for a reasonably priced, comfortable and relaxing pre-flight experience. Hence, if you're passing through Terminal 3, be sure to check it out and enjoy all that it has to offer!
