New Toronto Pearson Lounge offers travellers the ultimate in comfort, technology and style
On November 1, 2008, the new Toronto Pearson Lounge opened its doors, enhancing our travellers’ experience. The lounge is a relaxing haven available to all passengers, including those travelling on airlines without a premium lounge space at Toronto Pearson, as well as other passengers who just want to spend their time in a restful environment.

To make use of the lounge, passengers don’t have to be flying on Business- or First-class tickets, nor do they need to be frequent travellers. The Toronto Pearson Lounge is open to all passengers departing from Terminal 1 on an international flight.

For $35 per visit, up to a maximum of 3 hours, (Adults $30 before 11 a.m., $35 after 11 a.m., Children $25. Time limit of 3 hours for these purchase prices. Additional time may be purchased.) travellers have access to more than 3,000 square feet of lounge space and can enjoy benefits such as a business centre equipped by Samsung appliances, Internet service, club chairs, and food and beverage service. The Toronto Pearson Lounge is operated by Plaza Premium Lounge Management Ltd., which manages similar facilities at airports in Vancouver, Hong Kong and Singapore.

The entrance to the lounge is located across from Gate 177, next to the Duty Free store, on Level 2 of Hammerhead F. The lounge is accessed by a dedicated elevator and stairwell.

So whether you have a long layover as you travel through Toronto or you’re just looking for a place to put up your feet and enjoy a relaxing drink and snack before your flight, the new Toronto Pearson Lounge is the perfect complement to your next journey.
