Narita Airport Lounge

[jus_sum_guy]

Have a 4 hour layover at Narita airport in Tokyo.
I just noticed there isn't a Maple Leaf lounge there.

Do Air Canada business class flyers get access to any other lounges there?

I will be connecting to Vietnam Airlines

Thanks

Not sure about any of the lounge stuff, but last time I was in Narita it took 2-3 hours to get through all the security and customs so you might not have a lot of time. That was 10 years ago though.

I was just in Narita. 6 months ago and it took nowhere that long.

Not sure about the lounges, but for 10 bucks you can have thirty minutes in a shower which is worth every penny after the long flight there.

Usually you will get access to whatever Star Alliance partner's lounge that is in that airport. That isn't my part of the world so I have no idea what airline that would be.

But for your sake, hopefully it's as nice as Turkish's lounge in Istanbul... That place is simply amazing!

Unless you're flying out business on Vietnam airlines, I don't think you qualify for lounge access. Access is always based on the outbound flight except for a a few "arrival"lounges.

That said, on your return (if you're flying Business with AC), they'll have a contract lounge. It might actually not be a star alliance one.
Flying home from Melbourne, United sent me to the Cathay lounge, when there were a Star Alliance Air NZ and Singapore lounges available.

Sit in the main seating area with the rest of the peasants and experience what life is like with the other 99%.

Lol. I have for the hundreds of flights I've taken.
This is my first time going business class.

My connection to Vietnam Airlines is on business, so it looks like I'll be able to use a Skyteam partner lounge.

Thanks guys
