The fifth lounge, Metropolis, is in the arrivals area, available for those passengers who have connections between international and domestic flights, for those who need a meeting space, or simply to make use of the amenities of Primeclass Pacifico without the need for an airline ticket.
Three of the five lounges are currently open: “Isla de Pascua”, “Lagos” and “Metropolis” and soon “Desierto” and “Patagonia” will welcome passengers who need to use a comfortable space during their travels.

Our guests will not only enjoy distinctive services and a privileged location at Santiago International Airport, but will also enjoy comfortable and quiet spaces, surrounded by an avant-garde, unique and first-class design environment through a subtle palette of colors, curved lines, and inspiration from the Chilean geography.”
