Priority Pass Lounges at Faro Airport

At Faro Airport (FAO), your Priority Pass membership offers access to two CIP Lounges—one in the Schengen area and one in the Non-Schengen zone—providing a peaceful space to recharge before your flight.

CIP Lounge (Schengen Area)

Conveniently located airside in the Schengen Departure Area, this lounge sits on the 1st Floor between the shops and restaurant area, just after Security Control—follow the signs toward Gates A and ‘Other Destinations’. Open daily from 07:00 to 22:00, it allows for a maximum stay of 3 hours, and children under 3 years enter free.

Inside, you’ll enjoy complimentary refreshments, including soft drinks and alcoholic beverages, as well as free Wi-Fi, televisions, flight information screens, and air conditioning. A variety of seating arrangements makes it easy to relax with a magazine or catch up on work in a serene atmosphere.

CIP Lounge (Non-Schengen Area)

This lounge serves passengers traveling beyond the Schengen zone and is located airside in the Non-Schengen Departure Area. After Security Control, head toward Gates B, pass through Passport Control and the Duty-Free Shop—you’ll find the lounge on the left-hand side. Operating hours are also 07:00 to 22:00 daily, with a 3-hour stay limit, and children under 3 are welcomed free of charge.

Amenities mirror those in the Schengen lounge, with complimentary beverages, Wi-Fi, TVs, and flight monitors, alongside a calm, air-conditioned environment. With its quiet layout and comfortable furnishings, this lounge is an ideal escape from the crowds as you wait for your non-Schengen flight.

Nice to Know

Entry to both lounges requires a valid Priority Pass card and same-day boarding pass. Access may be restricted during peak hours.
