Plaza Premium Group to Open New Plaza Premium Lounge at New Chitose Airport in Hokkaido
Plaza Premium Group (PPG), the global leader in 360-degree airport hospitality and passenger service solutions, has announced plans to launch a new Plaza Premium Lounge at New Chitose Airport (CTS), a primary international gateway to Hokkaido. Targeted to open later this year, the lounge will be located airside on the fourth floor of the International Departures area, near Gate 66.
Strengthening Plaza Premium Group’s Presence in Japan
Spanning 814 square meters with capacity for over 170 guests, the new lounge extends PPG’s signature hospitality to international travellers departing from Hokkaido. The opening marks a major milestone in strengthening PPG’s footprint in Japan, building upon its established presence in the country, which includes the flagship Plaza Premium Lounge at Chubu Centrair International Airport (NGO) in Nagoya, along with dining and passenger service touchpoints across key hubs.
Designed as a comfortable, convenient sanctuary, the CTS space reflects the Group’s core mission to ‘Make Travel Better.’ Located at a key gateway for leisure and global connectivity, the lounge provides a relaxed pre-flight experience for every traveller—whether embarking on a holiday, visiting friends and family, or departing on business.
Comfort, Convenience, Curated Dining, and Flexible Lounge Experiences
The Plaza Premium Lounge at CTS will feature a welcoming environment for travellers to rest, recharge, and stay connected. Planned amenities and services include:
- Comfortable, ergonomic seating and complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi
- Specialty à la carte menu items, such as Soup Curry and Hokkaido Soft Serve Ice Cream
- A hot buffet selection accompanied by coffee, tea, and soft drinks
- Flexible operating hours, currently planned from 07:30 to 21:00 daily (subject to seasonal schedules and final confirmation)
Note: Final service inclusions, access arrangements, and beverage options will be confirmed prior to opening
