China Eastern have their own lounge at the concourse and they have too much flights to fit into the current T2 anyway. Dunno about Vietnam Airlines but they were supposed to move in when the T2 expansion is complete.

Ah yes I totally forgot about that HORRIBLE lounge, I did go there once! Pitch black dark, 90s decor, literally just some chips and nuts, booze with no ice......I consider myself in the know - but is T2 expansion not complete??

Still more to build in a 2nd stage, according to plans. But for the time being no more construction works.

You're talking about the concourse right? I believe that's the only terminal construction left.

The current T2 only has two arms facing T1, but there are plans to build two more arms in the opposite direction.

Chaise longue?

Does the Prestige lounge have any chaise longue or rest type seating? I saw them in the F class lounge photos.

In the far corner is a "relaxation room" that's actually separated by a door - there are loungers that recline quite far back as well as massage chairs.

Am routing through ICN from NRT and wondering if I should stick with the 747-8 for the short hop, or switch to an earlier 77W flight so I have a couple of hours to check out the lounge... Sounds like it's a nice one but not a must-see?

I don't think it's really that worth it for a few hours... Terminal is nice but not a place I'd go out of my way for.

Not worth it unless you are in F. The lounge is just a huge room with tons of seating, it just looks more modern than in T1. The food spread is a bit better than it used to be but thats it. And this time, no tarmac views whatsoever...
