Alaska Airlines is opening a new luxury lounge at San Francisco International Airport next year, complete with views of San Francisco Bay.
The 8,500-square-foot Alaska Lounge is in the works on the top floor of the airport’s Terminal 2 — Alaska Airlines’ first lounge in this terminal. It will include a barista station serving Starbucks coffee, afternoon tapas, made-to-order meals, West Coast wines and local micro-brewed draft beers. The lounge will also have high-speed WiFi, a fireplace seating area and concierge service.
“SFO is our second-largest hub with an average of 150,000 passengers flying on a daily basis, and we want to ensure airport visitors can rest, relax and enjoy our wide array of lounge offerings,” said Annabel Chang, vice president, Bay Area, Alaska Airlines.
Officials said the lounge’s regional theme and amenities are in line with the airline’s new New York (JFK) lounge (opened April 2018) and the flagship lounge at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport slated to debut in June 2019. The airline also is upgrading existing lounges in Portland (PDX), Anchorage (ANC), Los Angeles (LAX) and Seattle (SEA).

It was known as the “Kai Tak heart attack” — the thrilling, terrifying final approach into Hong Kong’s Kai Tak Airport. Airliners were required to bank sharply at the last moment, dodging hills and apartment blocks to line up with a runway jutting out into Kowloon Bay. The airport is long gone, but international visitors are arriving at Kai Tak again, albeit more sedately. Their cruise ships dock smoothly at Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a modern gateway designed by Sir Norman Foster.
