How to access this lounge

Passengers departing in Business Class within Malaysia, on Malaysia Airlines, can access this lounge.

Oneworld Sapphire and Emerald members can also gain complimentary access (+1 guest on the same flight), regardless of class of travel.

Travellers can also pay MYR 130 (US$29) to gain entry to this lounge. However, judging from the limited F&B options, there’s little value in doing so.
