# Cape Town International Airport (CPT) — Lounge directory

## Lounges

- [Bidvest Premier Lounge](/airports/cpt/lounge/bidvest-premier-lounge-domestic.md) — Domestic · depends · open: A practical Priority Pass or paid domestic stop, but its early closing time makes it unsuitable for later flights.
- [SLOW Lounge](/airports/cpt/lounge/slow-lounge.md) — Domestic · worth-it · open: A more characterful domestic option than the generic pay-per-use lounges, but access is primarily tied to qualifying FNB products.
- [The Lounge](/airports/cpt/lounge/the-lounge.md) — Domestic · worth-it · open: The renovated SAA domestic lounge is the strongest choice for eligible SAA and Star Alliance travellers who want workspace as well as a meal.
- [Bidvest Premier Lounge - Premier 1](/airports/cpt/lounge/bidvest-premier-lounge.md) — International · depends · open: Useful for an international Priority Pass visit, but limited capacity and the four-hour rule mean it is not a lounge to rely on at peak times.
- [Bidvest Premier Lounge - Premier 2](/airports/cpt/lounge/bidvest-premier-lounge-premier-2.md) — International · depends · open: The better-equipped of the two Bidvest international rooms, but still subject to capacity limits and a four-hour entry window.
- [British Airways Lounge](/airports/cpt/lounge/british-airways-lounge.md) — International · worth-it · open: The natural choice for eligible British Airways and oneworld passengers, with reports describing a modern, well-appointed room.
- [South African Airways Lounge](/airports/cpt/lounge/south-african-airways-lounge.md) — International · depends · open: An airline-access lounge for eligible SAA and Star Alliance passengers; verify operating hours against your flight because the published airport listing does not give them.
