Cathay Pacific has reopened its redesigned “The Bridge” lounge at Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA).
Located near Departure Gate 35 at HKIA’s Terminal 1, The Bridge features cherry wood, framed screens, black granite, travertine, plants, furniture, and artworks. It will soon implement biometric check-in alongside a traditional desk.
The lounge is divided into two sides: the left offers Chinese cuisine, including the Noodle Bar and a new concept called The Nook for regional small plates. The right side includes a dedicated area for First class and Cathay Diamond members, and the Food Hall with international dishes. The Bar offers drinks with runway views, and a relaxation area features Solo Chairs.
The reopening of The Bridge marks the first stage in Cathay Pacific’s wider lounge enhancement plan in Hong Kong and beyond. It comes as the airline prepares for the renovation of The Wing, First – which will close on May 23, 2025, and reopen in 2026 – followed by The Wing, Business at its Hong Kong hub, ensuring that customers continue to enjoy a premium lounge experience during the renovation of these lounges.
Another of the airline’s Business class lounges, The Deck, is also being enhanced. From May 21, The Deck will serve as an interim First class lounge during the renovation of The Wing. Eligible customers can also continue visiting The Pier, First and The Pier, Business during this time.
Over the next two years, Cathay Pacific will be launching new flagship lounges in Hong Kong, Beijing and, for the very first time, New York as part of the Cathay Group’s over HK$100 billion (US$12.8 billion) investment into new aircraft, cabin products, lounges and digital innovations.
