Belo Horizonte Confins Lounges CNF: every lounge and how to get in

Confins is friendly to lounge travelers without status. Most of the doors take Priority Pass, two sell paid entry to anyone, and a sleep cabin operator covers the overnight gap. Here is the full map and how to get in.

Lounge verdict
Better than the airport's size suggests. Priority Pass opens four lounges across the two terminals, the Advantage VIP Lounge sells entry at the door to any passenger, and Siesta Box adds sleep cabins for a real rest. There is no Amex Centurion lounge here, but the access without status is good.
Best access play
In Terminal 1, the Ambaar Lounge takes Priority Pass and runs long hours, and the Advantage VIP Lounge admits any passenger at the door with space and has showers for a small fee. Either covers a 3 to 5 hour domestic layover comfortably.
The one thing to know
The lounges sit in two terminals of one connected building, so reaching a different one is a short walk, but a lounge after passport control in Terminal 2 is only for international departures. Pick the lounge on the side you fly from.

How the Confins lounge map works

The terminal you fly from decides which lounge you use. Terminal 1 handles domestic flights and holds most of the lounge inventory, including the Ambaar Lounge, the Advantage VIP Lounge and the VIP Lounge Inter, plus the Siesta Box sleep cabins. Terminal 2 handles international departures and has its own Ambaar Lounge after passport control. The two terminals share one connected building, so a walk of a few minutes covers the distance, but you cannot use a Terminal 2 airside lounge unless you are flying out of Brazil.

The headline for travelers without elite status is the access. Priority Pass covers the Ambaar lounges and the Advantage and VIP Lounge Inter rooms, and the Advantage VIP Lounge also sells walk up entry to any passenger when it has space. Prices below are quoted in Brazilian Reais and move with the schedule and demand, so treat the figures as verify at booking.

Two things to note from the table. The Siesta Box cabins are a timed visit on Priority Pass or LoungeKey, with no advance reservation possible on those programs, so a cabin is subject to availability when you arrive. And the door prices at the Ambaar lounges are quoted in Reais, which makes them cheaper in dollar terms than the same kind of lounge in North America or Europe, a small bonus of connecting in Brazil.

What actually opens these doors

Priority Pass covers the Ambaar Lounge in Terminal 1, the Ambaar Lounge in Terminal 2, the Advantage VIP Lounge and the VIP Lounge Inter, and admits cardholders to a Siesta Box cabin for up to 2 hours subject to space. It is the single most useful card at Confins, since it opens a door on both the domestic and international sides.

Paying at the door works at the Ambaar lounges, from around R$200 in Terminal 1 and R$230 in Terminal 2, and at the Advantage VIP Lounge, which admits any passenger when it has space. Siesta Box sells cabin time from around R$65 to R$79 per hour. Prices move with demand, so confirm at booking.

Status and class of travel matter less here than at a big hub, because the airport is mostly domestic and the lounges are contract operations rather than airline flagships. There is no Amex Centurion lounge and no airline first class room. If you hold a lounge program or a few Reais, you are covered, which is the opposite of the status gated picture at larger airports.

Because the lounges sit in two terminals, the practical rule is to choose the one on the side you fly from. Confirm the door and hours on the day, since lounge hours at Confins follow the flight schedule and shift with it.
