Priority Pass Members will have access to 26 international and domestic airport lounges across Vietnam, through an expansion of the partnership with Noi Bai Aviation Service Joint Stock Company (SÔNG HỒNG); which sees 16 new domestic lounges being added to the network.

SINGAPORE, Aug. 10, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Collinson, a global leader in the provision of airport experiences, loyalty and customer engagement solutions, and owner and operator of Priority Pass, announces their expanded partnership with SÔNG HỒNG, a Vietnam-based provider of airport services. The expanded partnership results in Priority Pass Members having access to 26 international and domestic lounges across Vietnam – 18 of which are managed by SÔNG HỒNG.

Prior to the expansion, Priority Pass Members had access to a total of 10 lounges across Tan Son Nhat International Airport (SGN), Noi Bai International Airport (HAN), Da Nang International Airport (DAD) and Cam Ranh International Airport (CXR). With this announcement, Priority Pass Members can enjoy access to an additional 16 new domestic lounges in airports across Vietnam - 13 lounges in domestic airports are accessible with immediate effect; with the remaining three additions joining the Priority Pass network in the coming months. 

SÔNG HỒNG prides itself on operating premium airport lounges that feature unique design; an ever-evolving selection of food and beverages; as well as highly-trained service staff. Each airport lounge is crafted to reflect the respective local cultural nuances, paying homage to the brand's Vietnamese roots.

"With Vietnam recording 101.3 million domestic visits last year and a strong forecast to welcome 110 million visits this year (an increase of ~5% compared to 2022), including eight million international visitors, this is indeed an exciting time for the travel industry in Vietnam. Recognising the importance of this market to travellers, we are excited to extend our relationship with SÔNG HỒNG to ensure that our members can enjoy their bespoke airport lounge services when visiting this memorable market," said Todd Handcock, Global Chief Commercial Officer and President Asia Pacific at Collinson.

Mr. Đàm Duy Toản, Director of SÔNG HỒNG said, "With our network of airport lounges in Vietnam, we take pride in sharing our local culture by creating different experiences and inspiring visitors who visit our lounges. Over the past 5 years, we have enjoyed collaborating with Collinson's Priority Pass; and are looking forward to continuing to warmly welcome Priority Pass Members to our airport lounges and provide them with an unforgettable experience before starting or continuing their journeys in Vietnam."

With Vietnam's growing economy and its rising popularity as a travel destination, this extended partnership will enable Priority Pass Members to have access to a wider selection of business airport lounges where they can relax and unwind before their flight.
