Lounges

Royal Orchid Lounges at Suvarnabhumi Airport have been named according to THAI’s corporate concept which has derived from its own corporate identify, its slogan , its location, and its service. Thus, lounges are named after valuable silks from leading royal households among Suvarnabhumi countries that sway softly and gently. Gold and Silver threads that are neatly weaved are symbolic of valuable “beauty and elegance” in THAI’s services. Apart from the Royal Orchid Premium Area on Level 4 of the main terminal, Royal Orchid Lounge service is available at 8 locations
