Cathay The Pier Business Class Lounge
The business class little sibling of The Pier first class lounge, with massively more seating than any other lounge in the entire airport. One gate down from first class at gate 64, it spans a few gates in length. The bar was even acceptable to Rob.Hours

The Lounge
Opened in um, 2014 originally? I think. It wasn't a lounge in 2012. I finally went in 2026. I have been spending my time in other lounges, but as my editrix suggested "Quit being so elitist, you know most don't have access to the lounges you get", so here we are!The vibe is very similar to The Pier First Class. Same architecture and wood is utilized. Designed more though for extra traffic that the larger business and sapphire group numbers provide.
The Food
Well, with more numbers, obviously larger dining spaces. There was a lounge pre-Covid that the claim to fame was custom personal pizzas, and then it closed. Well... they have them here now! That's probably worth the trip regardless of your class of service. Plus the noodle bar present in every Business and First/Business combined Cathay lounge I have visited.The Drink
With more space, they have well, kinda the normal drink setup, except... a very special and really decked out tea room.
Similar entrance like the first class lounge
This is a feature that is better in business lounges. We need this in the first ones
Just look how freaking far this lounge goes (it's even longer in the center hallway)
The Bureau, very nice work area
Past the tea room at the very end, more private seating"
Large food counter
A few ready selections
This is the pizza. I had already eaten a lot so this wasn't on my list today but it smelled good
The Cathay standard, a Noodle bar
So much seating

Good selection of mid-shelf drinks
The coffee station, where you get all your caffeinated teeth staining sustenance
A very well appointed, and quite beautiful tea room
Quick grabs, for some stuff. Coke for me. Bar for better things
