China-Shanghai Pudong Airport T1

This is a series meant to help you find the best of the best in lounges everywhere.

Our 12-year-old, Jack has become a lounger-extraordinaire. He knows how to get the most out of any lounge experience and always manages to get our full money’s worth out of any visit. As a result, we have come up with a lounge rating system according to our very discerning lounge critic. Enjoy, and may you too achieve lounge nirvana!

According to Jack, this lounge provides just the basics. Overall not very impressive. Comfort was rated a 2 because it did have comfortable chairs but no working power ports. Sustinance was sub-par but was granted a 2 because of the “delicious prepackaged sandwiches”. I guess he liked them because by the time we left, Jack had eaten 13! Bathrooms are just a very dated small single stall and honestly you would be better off using the bathrooms outside the lounge.
