The New Islamabad International Airport is actually an International standard airport with all the facilities and amenities a top class Intl airport should have. Its huge and spacious and is located away from the city which is actually good in a way . Just calculate your time as I missed once a flight just because if my poor maths :) Thumbs Up !
The lounge is modern, world-class and the airport in general hosts state-of-the-art facilities and services. Green areas in buildings have a large impact on the environment and ambiance. It also helps the brain relax. I love the green area visible from the CIP lounge, which I must say was a much-needed addition. The lounge is up to the international standards and having traveled to many other international airports, I must say CIP lounge did not disappoint, in fact, despite Pakistan being a developing country, the airport has maintained a very high standard overall. The play area for kids is an awesome addition and the decor and ambiance is really beautiful! It’s a great relaxing spot before your flight, which wasn’t available in the older Islamabad airport.
A comfortable and quiet place to relax before your flight. The food is ok but nothing special. Drinks are available such as juice or tea and coffee. Staff are present and friendly and do ask if I need anything. The toilets are clean. Just a standard place but could do with improved food choices rather than the usual sandwiches and other predictable fare especially as it’s run by Marriot apparently.
A really comfortable space. Many sofas n comfortable chairs available. They should have more options for the eating places n coffee houses. Do check production n expiry dates of products specially if it involves meat. I hope they maintain the standard. So far its really nice.
Best Ever, I used to go on all of my Tour to Pakistan, found respective and con-operative Staff,Thanks !
Nicely done
A much needed update on the previous airport. Now its a joy to fly into the New Islamabad airport. A more enjoyable experience now. Highly recommended
Good, comforting ambience. Bit too cramped a space but have never found it full anyways
Staff is very nice, cooperative, helpful and friendly. A good addition to the lounges. Can improve food quality & variety but its nice enough to spend a few hours.
Not really impressed with the quality of food and services available at CIP lounge at IIA. I have been regularly travelling and always use CIP lounge sometimes courtesy from airline and sometimes self paid. I have used this lounge at IIA since its commissioned but unfortunately never ever this lounge was comparable with the one at Benazir Bhutto International Airport. I am uncomfortable and unhappy when had to pay from my own pocket for the services available specially the food and broadband absolutely disappointing. My suggestion to CAA is to look deeply into the CIP lounge at IIA as this airport is our new face to passengers travelling into and out of Islamabad Pakistan.
In contrast with Jinnah Airport Karachi, this airport seems like good bus stop instead look of airports. Although security is so called tight but I have seen flaw in security. I observed no any counter checking for army colored vehicles, that mean terrorists can enter into the airport by using armed forces vehicles which is very dangerous. Govt should take step to overcome this problem. It is just new airport nothing special.
Better than the other airlines lounge. Bigger with better seating. Limited food options. No diet drinks for eg
Food wasnt of the best quality but otherwise the lounge was great. The wifi service was also very good. Overall the lounge was very peaceful and comfortable. The pricing is a bit on the higher side but great area to sit in when traveling with family.
Clean, well thought out design. Pleasant experience to sit here before your flight
New Islamabad airport CIP lounge (maintained by PC Hotel) is cozy and well maintained. Best place for quick snacks and good strong hot coffee
Ma’sha’allah Nice pictures look in side so nice ️
Well what can we say. CIP lounge is supposed to be good. But like every place this lounge is also not maintained properly. The all of the staff is on Ground floor they dont bother coming on 1st floor.
Full neat and clean. One of the best airport lounges
Very great place and nothing to complain because very clean and very peaceful place.
Right now no special card discounts like the old airport. Either business ticket or 2000 rs to go inside. They should reduce it to 1500 and reintroduce card privilege and people will go there
Good but not much eating optionsOnly water and some biscuits....They need to add more and fresh food for serving...
Comfortable especially if you are dealing with a delayed flight!
More expensive than the old airport CIP LOUNGE. clean. Under Marriott management. Only 1 toilet. Can get very congested with long que when multiple flights are there simultaneously. Food usually does not taste fresh. Free entry for business travellers and Emirates gold passengers and above.
Convenient and comfortable, simplicity n cleanliness, great attitude of staff
New Islamabad airport is altogether a new experience and I hope that if airport management follow rules and regulations, this will help maintain beauty of this place.
Good but they have an issue accepting credit cards and will expect you to pay cash
An excellent lounge in Islamabad international airport that is providing premium services, quality snacks and excellent seating environment. It can be accessed if you have a specific credit card or upon payment.
Its under renovation. So hope it would be good.
Good place to have a brief rest before a long flight. Comfortable and having all amenities complimentary...
Good with free credit card access. Otherwise nothing really special
Comfortable place to wait for the next flight.
The 2 stars are for the nice seating area. The food is not even basic, 2 tightly spaced bathrooms and a very unattractive forign currency exchange rate.Perhaps from Pakistan standards it sounds good but it isnt. Given the lack of business and first class travellers and the free use by govt officials, no wonder it remain so basic.
For small layover the place is nice to relax before you start your journey.
Its was good, seating is good only refreshments are available but no food.
Good service polite and gentle staff
They are charging for entrance and facilities at the new airports CIP lounge. This is not the case for airports around the world. They shouldnt charge people with master cards or gold cards. The CIP lounge at Karachis airport allows Master card or visa gold card holders to use the facilities and refreshments without additional charges.
Very sad to know that CIP lounges donot accept credit cards, they should include it on Loungekey
The new Islamabad airport is a gift for the new developing Pakistan. With international standards and modern architecture this serves as a gateway to all foreigners visiting Pakistan by giving them a taste of what our cities entail
Nice place to relax before your departure.
Very efficient and quick service for Hajis, especially after Road to Makkah project. Now pilgrims can easily go for Hajj without waiting in queues at Jeddah or Madina Airports.Now no formalities to be done in Saudi Arabia.
Very bog,good facilities, veey helping staff.
Nice place at Islamabad international airport to some snacks before take off
That is a good place where we can enjoy
The cip lounge is Calm and elegant. Internet doesn’t work. Only 2 toilets for both men and women. No real coffee, only nescafe.
Its a nice place the food were good as compare to the old airport.
Not straightforward to find, but great for a long stop over
For Pakistan its one of most advanced and new designed airport. One should not compare it with foreign developed countries.
Lounge was great. Service should be improved
Amazing experience copping with international standards
The new lounge is excellent, spacious and the staff is very courteous. The best part is the smoking area exclusive for the lounge.
Comfortable place to spend ur time whilst taking a connecting flight
Great lounge with great food and great amenities
Good but reviewed 2 star for poor unclean Mens rest room. Not sharing pics as it looks appropriate.
Decent place. Food quality and variety needs improvement.
Great lounge with great food and great amenities
Islamabad Airport lounge. A cool place if you free time before boarding
Overall its a fine experience. Keep cash cz they dont take plastic.
Tremendous place caring staff and good refreshment. Love to visit again.
It was my first ever flight, it was advanced and according to modern design requirements.
A great lounge run by Marriott
Good place just to your eyes cold.
A good place with comfort,quality snacks and enviorenment. However they have only one toilet for ladies,should have had atleast two.
Fine place for sheesha lovers
Best place to eat if youre traveling from Islamabad International Airport
Sitting Capacity needs to be increased
A very neat and clean place on airport but needs retiring chairs as some time need to spend long hours
Good place for business class passengers
CIP lounge at Islamabad international airport is a very good facility with premier options to relax, dine or have hi-tea
Below average single seating and food quality is absolute zero. Chicken and sandwiches were unbearable. Water was dripping from the roof. Staff was OK. Should have rather stayed at airport floor than going to this lounge.
It was great place to relax
Its ok but spices are very low, swarma was good though.
Good lounge with good hi tea optional items
Decent place to sit at a half completed airport
Surprisingly good lounge!
Small, but well managed.
Miracle rounge now. When you have time in airport, go and rest. You should pay or make a voucher before.
Serene and comfortable place for waiting
No facilty at all. No flight info/ monitor. No wifi. No mobile signal or data signals. No representative from PIA or CAA. No info on flight delayed. Its like bus adda in remote village of Pakistan. Hope it will improve.
Good variety of food items
It was nice n congenial place.
Not much choice of food. The space is quite congested in comparison to how big the airport is . Sometimes at busy hours there is a que for toilets
An average place slightly better than sitting on hard chairs in the waiting area. Very average food.
Good lounge, nice selection of food, fast wifi
Its a very beautiful and luxury place
Excellent work..
V nice calm and relaxing place
Sitting arrangement and foodTaste was good.
Very nice lounge
