Buenos Aires Ezeiza Lounges EZE: every lounge and how to get in
Around 7 lounges operate in the one Ezeiza departures terminal, spread across the A, B and C gate sectors. Two take Priority Pass, the rest run on status, cabin or a bank card. Here is the full map and how to get in.
- Lounge verdict
- Workable rather than deep. The departures terminal carries an Amex Centurion lounge, a Star Alliance lounge, the alliance and airline rooms for LATAM, American and Aerolineas, plus a Priority Pass option near Gate 23. The catch is capacity: the evening long haul bank fills lounges fast and refusals are common.
- Best access play
- Priority Pass gets you into the Ezeiza Lounge near Gate 23 without a time window. The Star Alliance Lounge also takes the card, but only in a restricted window with a 3 hour cap, so check the app first. Amex Platinum routes to the Centurion Lounge.
- The one thing to know
- All the lounges sit airside in the single departures terminal, so they are reachable once you are through security. The constraint is space at peak, not location, so walk over early in the evening and keep a backup plan.
Orientation
How the Ezeiza lounge map works
Every EZE lounge is airside in the single departures terminal that opened in 2023, so once you clear security you can reach any of them. The gates fan out in three sectors labeled A, B and C, and the lounges cluster around them. Sector A holds the LATAM VIP Lounge and the American Airlines Admirals Club, which also hosts Iberia premium customers. Sector B carries the Star Alliance Lounge and the Amex Centurion Lounge, plus the Priority Pass Ezeiza Lounge nearby. Sector C is home to the Aerolineas Argentinas Salon Condor.
Aeropuertos Argentina also opened its own VIP Club lounge in the heart of the departures terminal in 2025, sold as a premium package with biometric entry rather than a program door. Hours and walk up prices shift, and capacity refusals are common during the evening departure bank, so treat the figures below as verify at booking and have a plan B.
The lounges
Every EZE lounge by sector
| Lounge | Sector and location | Access | Walk up | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ezeiza Lounge | Airside, near Gate 23, open 24 hours, about a 3 hour stay limit | Priority Pass, LoungeKey, DragonPass, Diners Club, eligible Amex | Pay in to be confirmed | The dependable Priority Pass door without status, with showers reported |
| Star Alliance Lounge | Sector B, opposite Gates 9 and 10, open 24 hours, 3 hour stay cap | Star Alliance Gold, First and Business, United Club and AC Maple Leaf Club; Priority Pass only midnight to 3pm | Not generally sold | Good when you get in, but it fills badly at peak |
| Amex Centurion Lounge | Sector B, airside, open 24 hours | Amex Platinum and Centurion, plus Amex Delta SkyMiles Reserve cardholders | Not sold | The premium room for eligible Amex cardholders |
| LATAM VIP Lounge | Sector A area, airside, near Gate 9 | LATAM Business and Premium Economy, LATAM Pass elites, eligible partner premium and elite, including Delta | Not sold | The LATAM and partner room for the South American carrier |
| American Airlines Admirals Club | Sector A, Hall A second level, near Gate 9, open about 7:00 to 21:30 | Admirals Club and Alaska Lounge+, oneworld First and Business, Emerald and Sapphire; pay at door | About 79 US dollars, to be confirmed | Also hosts Iberia premium customers; a rare pay in door with status |
| Aerolineas Argentinas Salon Condor | Sector C, opens about 4 hours before each Aerolineas departure | Club Condor, Aerolineas Plus Platinum and Diamond, SkyTeam Elite Plus, SkyTeam First and Business | Not sold | The SkyTeam room, tied to Aerolineas flight times |
| Aeropuertos Argentina VIP Club | Central departures terminal, airside | Premium package with biometric entry, not a standard program door | Sold as a package, price to be confirmed | The newest room, opened 2025, sold direct rather than via cards |
Two things to take from the table. The Ezeiza Lounge near Gate 23 is the one reliable door for travelers without status or an Amex card, since it takes Priority Pass without a time window. And the Star Alliance Lounge, while it accepts the card, only does so in a restricted window and refuses Priority Pass walk ups constantly during the evening long haul bank, so never plan around it as your only option.
Access decoder
What actually opens these doors
Priority Pass covers two lounges. The Ezeiza Lounge near Gate 23 takes the card outright, with no time window, alongside LoungeKey, DragonPass and Diners Club. The Star Alliance Lounge admits Priority Pass only between midnight and 3pm with a 3 hour cap, and refusals for space are common, so check the app and arrive early.
Paying at the door is limited at EZE. The American Airlines Admirals Club is the clearest pay in option, listed around 79 US dollars, though it leans on oneworld status too. The new Aeropuertos Argentina VIP Club sells a premium package with biometric entry rather than a walk up rate, and the Ezeiza Lounge pay in price is to be confirmed.
American Express Platinum and Centurion cardholders use the Centurion Lounge in Sector B, open 24 hours, and Amex Delta SkyMiles Reserve cardholders are also admitted. Status and cabin cover the rest: the Star Alliance Lounge for Star elites and eligible Business and First, the LATAM VIP Lounge for LATAM and partner premium travelers, the Admirals Club for oneworld First, Business, Emerald and Sapphire, and the Salon Condor for SkyTeam elites and premium cabins on Aerolineas flights. Confirm the door and hours on the day, since several open only around their airline's departures.

Options are limited. The American Airlines Admirals Club is the clearest pay in door, listed around 79 US dollars, though it also leans on oneworld status. The Aeropuertos Argentina VIP Club sells a premium package with biometric entry, and the Ezeiza Lounge pay in price is to be confirmed. Treat all prices as verify at booking.
Is there an Amex Centurion lounge at Ezeiza?
Yes. The American Express Centurion Lounge sits airside in Sector B of the departures terminal, open 24 hours. It admits eligible Amex Platinum and Centurion cardholders, plus Amex Delta SkyMiles Reserve cardholders, each with a same day boarding pass and standard guest rules.
Why is it so hard to get into the Star Alliance Lounge at EZE?
Capacity. The Star Alliance Lounge fills badly during the evening long haul departure bank, and Priority Pass members are admitted only between midnight and 3pm anyway, with a 3 hour cap. Waiting lists often do not clear, so arrive early, check the app, and keep the Ezeiza Lounge near Gate 23 as a backup.
Which lounge is best at EZE?
With an eligible Amex card, the Centurion Lounge in Sector B is the strongest room. With Star Alliance status the Star Alliance Lounge is good when you can get in. Without status or the right card, the Ezeiza Lounge near Gate 23 is the dependable Priority Pass door, with showers reported.
Do the Ezeiza lounges have showers?
The Ezeiza Lounge near Gate 23 is the one most consistently reported with showers, useful on a long layover or before an overnight flight. Other lounges may offer them for eligible guests, but availability varies, so confirm on the day rather than counting on a shower at a specific door.
