A First-Class Touch for Johor Bahru Travellers
Plaza Premium Lounge Johor Bahru stands out as a dual-purpose lounge, catering to both local and international travellers, a rare proposition in many regional airports. Designed with an emphasis on comfort, heritage and innovation, it provides travellers with a quiet, elegant place to relax before take-off.
From ergonomic seating and warm lighting to state-of-the-art self check-in kiosks and digital menu ordering via QR code, the lounge is built around the concept of convenience and efficiency. It’s also fully integrated with the Smart Traveller app, enabling a seamless experience from arrival to boarding, while unlocking personalised rewards and services.
“Lounge To-Go” and Local Culinary Flavours
Not every traveller has time to sit down. The lounge’s new Lounge To-Go concept allows passengers on tight layovers or early departures to grab curated meals and beverages to enjoy on the go. Takeaway gourmet sandwiches, traditional sweets, and quality coffee, packaged for travel without compromising on flavour.
But it’s the Proudly Local culinary curation that adds the strongest sense of place. Guests can tuck into dishes that reflect the heart of Johor’s vibrant food culture. Look out for the famed Laksa Johor, a noodle dish resembling spaghetti bolognese but bursting with coconut-rich local spices. Otak-Otak, grilled spiced fish paste in banana leaves, also makes an appearance on the menu, offering a delicious pre-flight teaser of Malaysia’s heritage.
Art and Culture on Display
Beyond food, the lounge doubles as a micro-gallery, featuring curated art from Malaysian creatives. These pieces are available for purchase, letting guests support local talent while soaking in the creative spirit of Johor Bahru. Whether you’re lounging with a coffee or browsing through artworks, the environment is crafted to feel like more than just an airport amenity. It’s a cultural experience.
A Milestone for Plaza Premium Group
“This opening is a proud moment,” said Cavin Loh, Regional General Manager (Southeast Asia) at Plaza Premium Group. “Returning to Johor Bahru with Plaza Premium Lounge is an exciting milestone. We’re redefining the airport experience here by blending technology with authentic Malaysian hospitality.”
Senai International Airport serves as an important gateway in southern Malaysia, and this new lounge positions itself as a key differentiator in both convenience and customer satisfaction—particularly at a time when leisure and business travel in the region is steadily on the rise.
