TG Lounge at KLIA

Hi!

TG no longer operates Royal Orchid Lounge at KLIA. Which lounge would TG’s business class passengers be sent to upon c/in? Plaza Premium Lounge?

Last time I flew TG out of KUL (May 23) it was the Plaza Premium lounge which was really quite good.

TPE was gone long before Corona. Surprisingly, there's little TG lounge at NAIA (MNL) T1!

They used to have a private F section. I guess it's gone too.

Was supposed to fly out with Thai in a few days but swapped to MH. IIRC, it was PPL before but there are also 2 recently opened lounges at the C gates / satellite pier. I am not sure if they switched it to that. Travel Club Lounge seems mostly like a PP/credit card lounge (in addition to PPL Business section) where as the Global Lounge seems more of an airline lounge. Both lounges look really nice from pictures but I have yet to venture inside as all my travels only gave me access to PPL/MH lounges.

In Oct. I used the satellite lounge. I had the hardest time finding it, and once in it was nothing special but enough at 6am for some decent coffee (the fancy machines that make whatever you want) and some food to eat). Given the need for a bus to the satellite I felt more comfortable in a lounge relatively near my departure gate. (Note KL is one of those airports where you get screened at the gate)

TG uses the Plaza Premium in the Main Terminal (near G gates, right after immigration). Apparently TG Plats get sent to the F side, but I can't personally vouch for this.

They still board at the Satellite (C gates) so it's not the most convenient setup.
