Southwest Finally Gets Lounge Access: Aloha to Relaxation in Honolulu!
Published on October 31, 2025, 10:04 PM
Heads up, Southwest fans! It looks like the airline is finally jumping on the lounge bandwagon. They've just signed a lease for a 12,000-square-foot space in Honolulu (HNL), which will be their very first lounge ever! This comes on the heels of surveys hinting at a premium Southwest credit card that mentioned future lounges at Southwest hubs.
Why should you care? Well, if you frequently fly Southwest to or through Honolulu, this could mean a more comfortable pre-flight experience is coming your way. Imagine escaping the airport hustle and bustle for a quieter space with (hopefully!) comfy seating, snacks, and maybe even some free drinks.
While details are still scarce on what the lounge will actually offer (think food, drinks, amenities, access rules), this is still a big deal for Southwest loyalists who have long envied the lounge access enjoyed by flyers on other airlines. It seems Southwest is getting serious about offering more premium perks! We'll keep you updated as more details emerge.
