On a trip to Georgia, I had the chance to try the Primeclass Lounge at Tbilisi International Airport. Here was my experience.

Location

Above the very busy check-in counters at Tbilisi International Airport in Georgia, the Primeclass Lounge welcomes business class flyers and Priority Pass members after immigration and security and before Duty-Free. The airport website lists both a Departures and Arrivals Primeclass lounge with Arrivals on the lower floor.

At 3 AM, the check-in counters were overflowing with some lines extending to the exterior doors, and the departure hall bustling as well for the early morning flights.

Entry

Business class passengers on major carriers should have lounge access included. For my flight, I was traveling on Lufthansa in a premium cabin and most alliance carriers appear to use the same lounge for passengers. Those who hold Priority Pass (Select or standard) have access as well, cards are checked at the door along with boarding passes. No in-lounge announcements are made, but airport-wide departure adjustments are made on the speakers.

Staff was limited so there was a slight wait to get checked in.

Food and Beverage

Food

The lounge offered a variety of hot food items and cold deli plates as well as desserts and pastries including cheese khachapuri. THe food was decent, the khachapuri should not be missed.

Drinks

Alcoholic drinks are available behind a bar, though during my visit it wasn’t staffed. I would have liked to try the coffee but this was also behind the counter. I have no doubt that had I asked a staff member for something behind the bar, someone would have fixed me a drink. There were plenty of other complimentary drinks, sufficient for my visit and self-serve.

Seating

Two sides of the lounge offered seating for guests and it was very full ahead of the early morning outbound flights. I struggled to find a seat but did find a single near a table that allowed me to eat and set down my things. Do not count on power plugs as they were in limited supply.  Even where seats appear to be open, these were occupied by guests who were getting food, or in the restroom as indicated by seatmates and their luggage.

Most guests will want to wait until right before their flight is scheduled to board. Many flights were departing near the same time but would wait until after their stated boarding time to begin pre-boarding. My flight left on time but boarded 15 minutes late. I recommend not leaving the lounge until right at the stated boarding time even when traveling in a premium cabin that allows entry at the first boarding group.

Conclusion

The Primeclass Lounge was certainly better than spending time at the crowded boarding area, but if airport traffic was light, I wouldn’t go out of my way to return. The food was fine, but space was limited and there might have been better power port access in the terminal.

What do you think? Have you visited the Primeclass Lounge in Tbilisi, Georgia? How was your experience?

    “Cheese khachapuri” is like saying “avocado guacamole”. I sure hope there’s cheese in a khachapuri, otherwise it’s just plain bread. Yours looks like megruli khachapuri, which has some more cheese added on top, maybe that is what you meant to say?

    That looks like a lounge which beats many airline lounges – for their ‘premium customers’ hands down.

While not surprising, it is sad to see the growing list of carriers retiring this superjumbo jet. On Malaysia Airlines, I flew the #A380 once from Kuala Lumpur (KUL) to London (LHR) and had the entire first class cabin to myself (full review on the blog). It was a beautiful flight that I will always remember.

While I’ve enjoyed catching up on others over the years, now it is time for me to return to Instagram. In this first post, I highlight two joys in my life, my two children, whom I trust will grow up to be prolific travelers that circumnavigate the globe as ambassadors of love and respect.
