“We’re delighted that Plaza Premium Group has chosen Adelaide Airport for its first domestic lounge in Australia,” said Brenton Cox, Managing Director, Adelaide Airport. “We think it will attract a wide range of customers, from business travellers, families and those heading off on holidays, by offering a quiet and comfortable sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of a busy airport. It perfectly complements Plaza Premium’s international lounge, offering a seamless and connected experience for everyone.”

Located in Domestic Departures, Plaza Premium Lounge Adelaide marks PPG’s inaugural presence in domestic terminals across Oceania, building on its robust international portfolio and longstanding commitment to enhancing airport experiences for every traveller. This new lounge is open to all guests, regardless of airline or travel class, delivering elevated hospitality that’s accessible and appealing, particularly to today’s digital-savvy generation seeking premium service at an affordable price. Every facet of the contemporary lounge reflects South Australia’s warmth and hospitality, offering a tranquil escape that places comfort, style, and convenience at the forefront of the travel experience.

The Plaza Premium Lounge Domestic Adelaide is thoughtfully designed to reflect South Australia’s warmth and character. The lounge offers a calm and inviting retreat within the heart of the terminal. Natural textures, layered lighting, and a contemporary palette inspired by local landscapes are designed to create a relaxed yet refined atmosphere. Guests will find flexible seating, dedicated workstations and high-speed WiFi, all while enjoying a culinary experience that celebrates local flavours and seasonal ingredients.

“The debut of Australia’s first independent domestic airport lounge in Adelaide is a defining moment for Plaza Premium Group and for travellers across the country,” said Song Hoi-See, Founder and CEO, Plaza Premium Group. “We are deeply committed to expanding premium, accessible lounge experiences, and Adelaide’s impressive aviation growth made it the natural choice for this launch. South Australia is witnessing remarkable demand for travel, with Adelaide Airport’s network of connections continually expanding. The return and addition of international routes, ranging from Christchurch and Auckland to Hong Kong and Bali, with more destinations such as San Francisco and Shanghai set to join soon, underline the state’s rising influence as a gateway to Australia. With the opening of our new Plaza Premium Lounge, our aim is to enhance the journey for every passenger – whether travelling for work, leisure, or returning home. It is a privilege to contribute to South Australia’s growth and its standing as a world-class destination.”
