[Osaka] Stop by the card lounge "Lounge Osaka" at Itami Airport on your way there or on your way back!
This lounge is free to use if you have a Gold Card from an affiliated card company and a same-day ticket.
It's located on the third floor of the central block, so it's a little hard to find.
Refer to the 11th photo to find the information desk in the center of the second floor, then go up the stairs to the left of it, turn around, and walk down the long, straight corridor until you see the automatic door to the lounge on your left. Enter quietly and call out to the receptionist.
This lounge is located in the general area before security, so you can use it before or after your departure. There are semi-private, walled, single-seater seats, so it's a friendly place for people who are alone, and you can relax at your leisure. Of course, there are also open sofa seats. There are also restrooms inside the lounge. There is free Wi-Fi, and when you access it, the message "Wi-Fi, it's free" appears.
Soft drinks are free, and if you like Nespresso coffee, you can drink it for 150 yen. If you like alcohol, you can drink it for 500 yen. It's a self-serve server. There are some snacks.
One thing to note is that if you are about to board, you should think carefully about the time before leaving the lounge.
The departure security checkpoint is on the second floor, and it takes a surprisingly long time to move from the third floor, where the lounge is, to the security checkpoint while carrying your luggage through the crowd. I thought I had left 30 minutes before my flight time, but for some reason I managed to pass through security just in time. When you hear the countdown announcement "There are ◯ minutes left until the deadline (please hurry)," you get even more impatient. I'm sure I was furious in the queue. (The deadline for passing through security is 20 minutes before departure.)
Everyone, security can be crowded, so please be careful not to relax too much in the lounge!
