Sabiha Gökçen Airport Lounge Guide 2026

Sabiha Gökçen Airport (SAW) domestic and international lounge options with current prices, hours and access methods.

Sabiha Gökçen Airport features Plaza Premium Lounges in both terminals. The domestic lounge is located after security on the right side, roughly in the middle of the main corridor leading to gates — about a 3-minute walk.

The international terminal's Plaza Premium Bosphorus Lounge is situated past passport control, at the end of the duty-free area. Walk toward "Gate 200" and you'll see the sign on your right.

Sabiha Gökçen gets particularly busy on weekends with Istanbul-Ankara and Istanbul-Izmir flights. Friday evenings from 17:00-21:00 are the lounges' most crowded periods. If flying with Pegasus, the lounge is a worthwhile investment for extra comfort — since Pegasus doesn't have its own lounge agreement, Priority Pass or walk-in payment are the most practical options.

Both lounges are open 24 hours and offer showers, which is a major convenience before late-night flights. During summer months (June-September), the international lounge fills up due to holiday traffic — try to enter at least 3 hours before your flight if possible.
