Which one to chose when have access to 'Air India Lounge' as well as 'Premier Plaza Lounge' on Terminal3 of Delhi Airport and why?
Usually when I travel, I use Premier Plaza Lounge at Terminal-3 but recently I had an option and thought of exploring Air India Lounge as well. Let me clarify one thing that I was taking domestic flight and not international flight because those sections are different on Terminal-3 and hence the comparison may not hold true for Air India Lounge at International section of Terminal-3.
Air India Lounge is only available for Business Class passengers of their domestic flights and here are few observations about Air India Lounge & it's comparison with Premium Plaza Lounge:
1. Usually this lounge in sort of empty and hence enough space for everyone who is inside the Lounge. While the situation is exact opposite in Premium Plaza Lounge. There is usually waiting time and one need to find an empty seat and it's more problematic if you are a group of more than 3.
2. If you talk about variety of food/snacks/drinks available in both the lounges, I find Premium Lounge better. Air India Lounge gives a lazy vibe and there are very few options. We are saying it on the basis of breakfast options and the situation may be different during other times of the day.
3. Washrooms in both the lounges are clean, but Air India gets a edge given it's hardly crowded.
4. I noticed that Air India Lounge also has an area where travellers can take bath and I don't remember anything like that in Premium Plaza Lounge.
5. If you talk about seating. Air India Lounge certainly has spacious seating arrangements and has more comfortable seats in comparison to Premium Plaza Lounge at Terminal-3 of Delhi Airport.
