China
Getting your bearings inside Chinese airports is not an easy matter, or rather the directions are often confusing, Fortunately, lounges are usually assigned a sequential number and you just have to be able to get your bearings because the numbers are Arabic numbers.
Location
In this article:
We are at T2 airport in Shanghai Pudong, in the international flight area just a few steps from the tunnel entrance leading to the Air China lounge.
As can be seen from the markings this is lounge 71.
Juneayao's is instead number 72
Who is Juneyao Air
Juneyao Air is a Chinese private airline based in Shanghai, operating since September 2006. It operates domestic and international flights from Shanghai (Hongqiao and Pudong airports) to cities in Asia and Europe, and in Italy flies only to Milan Malpensa.It is a "Connecting Partner" member of Star Alliance, and has codeshare agreements with various airlines, including Air China, ANA, EVA Air, Finnair, and China Eastern.
Access
This lounge opens its doors to both airline passengers, but also and especially to Priority Pass and Dragonpass holders.
The lounge
The environment is small, but really beautiful and stylish.
It is a small open space with different accommodations positioned in the center. Of course there are no great facilities, but it is definitely convenient.
Food&Beverage
Paradoxically, more space was devoted to the buffet area than to people, and that is not a criticism.
There is the station with express cooking where noodles are prepared on the spot, which then, each guest can season as they see fit.
The dishes are of course local cuisine, but the choice is varied and allows even the most sophisticated palates to find dishes with which to fill the void before takeoff.
On the opposite side from the buffet is the beverage island. Here, too, nothing is lacking.
Wines and spirits included.
In conclusion
Supersympathetic staff, clean and all in all tidy environment. We are not at the very high level of the lounge that this company has in the other airport in Shanghai, but nonetheless it is a confirmation of a very good setting and stimulates me more and more to try to fly Juneyao.
