Priority Pass Lounges at Incheon International Airport

Long layover in Seoul? Why settle for a gate bench when you could be sipping miso soup or sampling bulgogi in comfort? At Incheon International Airport (ICN), your Priority Pass membership unlocks access to some of the most well-appointed lounges in Asia.

Spread across Terminals 1 and 2, these lounges give you a curated taste of Korean hospitality with spacious seating, local cuisine, and even robot service—yes, robots. Here’s how to lounge in style, K-style.

Sky Hub Lounge (Terminal 1, Gate 11)

Tucked airside near Gate 11, the Sky Hub Lounge is a popular early morning and midday spot, open daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM. With seating areas designed for both work and dining, this lounge delivers a cozy atmosphere with a buffet that blends the East and West. One moment you’re ladling up a bowl of kimchi jjigae (spicy tofu stew), and the next you’re pairing it with a mini croissant or scrambled eggs. They also serve bibimbap, Korea’s famous rice bowl, which you can assemble yourself with a colorful array of toppings. The high-speed Wi-Fi works seamlessly, and the TV corner and magazines help pass the time between bites. It’s not over-the-top luxurious, but it’s hearty, practical, and authentically Korean—just like a good jjigae.

Matina Lounge (Terminal 1, Gate 43)

Further down Terminal 1 near Gate 43, the Matina Lounge greets you with an expansive buffet of Korean and international dishes, open from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily, with food service ending at 9:30 PM. Known for its wide-ranging selection, this lounge allows you to build a full meal: start with a steaming bowl of kalguksu (knife-cut noodle soup) or grab a plate of sweet and spicy yangnyeom chicken. You’ll also find western comfort fare, from mac and cheese to green salads, and a rotating dessert bar that may feature red bean cakes or custard tarts. The lounge is spacious, the vibe is relaxed, and there’s ample Wi-Fi, TVs, and a quiet spot for nearly every type of traveler.

Matina Lounge (Terminal 2, Gate 252)

Over in Terminal 2 near Gate 252, the second Matina Lounge carries the same culinary weight but adds a futuristic twist—robots. Yes, open daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM, this lounge uses robot assistants to help keep things spotless, whisking away dishes and tidying tables with quiet precision. The buffet here is no slouch either: dig into dakgalbi (spicy stir-fried chicken), kimchi pancakes, or choose lighter fare like fruit plates and noodle salads. You’ll find seating zones ranging from communal tables to individual lounge chairs, making it easy to relax or get work done. And with seamless Wi-Fi and a calm, efficient ambiance, this lounge is perfect for tech-savvy travelers who want comfort with a side of innovation.
