Plaza Premium Group (PPG) has announced the completion of its expansion project in Chongqing with the opening of its third Plaza Premium Lounge, which is integrated with an airport dining establishment – Jon Ramen at Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport. This new location, situated at the departure hall (landside), marks PPG’s third location in Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport. It follows the previous openings of the first Plaza Premium Lounge and Jon Ramen at Pier E, Domestic Departures (airside) in November 2023 and the second one at Pier H, International Departures (Airside) in April 2024.
The Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport project signifies PPG’s expansion into southwestern China while reinforcing its strategic presence in the Chinese market. It also marks PPG’s innovative collaboration with a renowned chain restaurant brand in China for the first time in the region, as well as opening its first international departure lounge in China, fulfilling its brand mission of “Together, We Make Travel Better.”
“The Chinese travel market is a dominant force in the world, and we are proud to be able to expand on our lounge, dining and concierge services for travelers in the dynamic southwestern region,” said Regional General Manager – North Asia Jenny Zhang. “We not only want to cover all aspects of the needs of travelers at the airport, but to use our presence as an opportunity to promote the location’s culture, cuisine and traditions in our Proudly Local initiative.”
The newly opened lounge is located on the fifth floor of the departure level in Terminal T3A landside, behind Check-in Counter 3C, spanning 185 square metres and accommodating up to 35 guests. Unlike traditional lounges, PPG has partnered with a renowned ramen chain in China for the first time, housing both Plaza Premium Lounge and Jon Ramen under one roof. This collaboration offers a unique hospitality experience for travellers.
The lounge features sleek and comfortable sofa seating, a serene work environment, flight information displays, and charging facilities. Additionally, a multi-functional meeting room capable of hosting up to 22 people caters to the diverse needs of business travelers.
