Airlines demonstrate loyalty to frequent fliers by providing complimentary lounge access with amenities such as comfortable seating, WiFi, and refreshments. Airport lounges offer a tranquil environment equipped with conveniences like showers, meeting rooms, and local cuisine options. Various airlines have exclusive lounges at their hub airports, offering travelers a VIP experience before their flights.

Frequent fliers often appreciate the benefits of airport lounges. These spaces provide free food and drinks among other amenities. While many carriers also offer lounge memberships for a fee, these are essential for many corporate travelers who fly frequently.

In the Pacific Islands, several notable airport lounges provide a relaxing atmosphere for travelers. Fiji Airways' Premier Lounge at Nadi International Airport can accommodate up to 200 guests at any time. "Travelers can enter for free if they are Fiji Airways business class guests, Tabua Club and Tabua Club Plus members, or premier guests of our partner airlines," according to the airline. The lounge features an extensive buffet with local and international dishes, barista stations, a full bar, showers with Pure Fiji products, and a play area for children.
