Cathay Pacific's refurbished First Class lounge, The Wing, First, reopens at Hong Kong International Airport on April 22, 2026, with access restricted to Diamond members and First Class passengers

## Summary

Cathay Pacific is reopening its newly redesigned flagship lounge, The Wing, First, at Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) on April 22, 2026. The lounge, located on the east side of Terminal 1, has undergone extensive refurbishment in collaboration with StudioIlse, featuring updated materials like walnut wood and granite, and new signature furniture. Access rules for the reopening:
- Primary access is for Cathay Pacific Diamond members and First Class passengers.
- Emerald members from non-Cathay partners and First Class passengers flying on other airlines are initially requested to use The Pier First class lounge, with potential later availability in The Wing, First. The reopening is part of a broader lounge enhancement plan. The Wing, Business is scheduled to close for renovations in 2027, and a new dedicated lounge is planned for New York's Terminal 6 later this year
