Rachel DubeCathay Pacific has two lounges for first-class fliers in this airport — The Wing and The Pier — but the latter was closest to me, so I chose to visit it during my travels. According to Cathay Pacific's website, the lounge is available from 5:30 a.m. to 12:30 a.m. daily. To enter the lounge, I scanned my boarding pass at the check-in station. From the moment I entered, it felt like a premium airport lounge experience.

There was a slight breeze by the sea and marina, but nothing that required a jacket during the day.
