The Pier — First Class
Cathay Pacific
Hong Kong International
Terminal 1
Why we ranked it here
The Pier has won more international lounge awards than any other First Class product, and a visit makes clear why. Its private cabanas, which convert into semi-enclosed day suites, solve the problem every other lounge ignores: what to do with a two-hour connection at midnight. The restaurant operates at a level most airlines reserve exclusively for the aircraft.
