That's unreal. They have a whole new terminal/satellite and they're still using bus gates????
- No shuttles for this guy.
- Incoming, both inbound and outbound flights were parked at gates in the extension.
- On my return (TPE), we landed in the main terminal and I walked over to get to the extension (PVG-LAX) -- mostly escalator rides. I do like the view as you come up the escalator into the extension.

Since there are no maps of the satellite terminal on the internet, I've resorted to just calling them Right and Left.

The smaller lounge (to the right) is
119, and I think it's for non-business/first elites. The larger lounge (to the left) is
137. In terms of MU lounges,
137 >
36 (old one in T1) >
119. No issues with shower.
- As of Dec 1, they have added the China Eastern logo to signage in the extension, a big help for navigation!
- Logoed signage!
As far as I can determine based on signage, lounges were only for SkyTeam Elite / Business / First, no priority pass or any other 3rd party groups.
- On my way back, I went into the non-MU lounge which I actually preferred 135 (on level 4). It's right next to the escalator to the left coming up from 3.
- It accepts priority pass, FYI.
- Way fewer people right now.
- Hot food similar to MU lounge 119, but this one actually had individually wrapped snacks. Noodle bar wasn't open unfortunately.
- Liquor selection not as great, but oddly enough they had Fanta orange soda stocked along with the usual sprite/coke! I'm a seltzer guy, and all the lounges have the schweppes stuff.
