Hong Kong Airport's Ceiling! Luxurious Experience at The Pier First Class Lounge

At Hong Kong Airport, I stumbled upon Cathay Pacific's The Pier First Class Lounge, and it instantly opened up a new dimension of waiting for flights! Designed by London-based Studioilse, the lounge features green onyx walls and walnut furniture with a warm glow. Stepping inside feels like entering a hidden luxury mansion. My favorite spot is the "Retreat Room" for sleeping, where soundproof glass overlooks the airplane runway. Pulling back the curtains to watch takeoffs and landings is incredibly soothing! 🍴 The food is divine! The Wagyu beef burger is crispy on the outside and tender inside, the spicy wontons are delightfully numbing, and even the abalone tofu appetizer is so exquisite it looks like a piece of art. Collaborating with Rosewood Hotels, the four-course Chinese meal is full of ceremonial flair, perfectly paired with Drappier champagne. The non-alcoholic cocktails, made with fresh fruits, are so refreshing you'd want to take them home! 💆♂️ Don't miss the 15-minute complimentary massage! The therapist's shoulder and neck massage instantly relieves tension, and the shower facilities with Bamford amenities and Danish royal bathroom fittings are more luxurious than a five-star hotel. The workspace is equipped with Apple computers, letting you sip champagne while handling emails—turning your wait into a high-end afternoon tea experience! 📝 Pro tip: Choose flights departing from gates 60+ and take the train to explore the lounge leisurely. Cathay Diamond members and Oneworld Emerald members can even bring guests. Membership holders, don't miss out! This "sky palace" completely redefines the airport experience. Next time I fly to Hong Kong, I’d rather arrive three hours early just to relax here!
