Plan recovery

Lounge and wellness data available

Best current lounge for recovery: VIP Lounge Internacional in Terminal 1 offers showers and is complimentary with select airline partnerships. For a more equipped option with spa services, VIP Lounge Nacional (Domestic Terminal 1, 2nd floor) provides both showers and spa facilities on a pay-per-use basis. Both lounges support rest and recovery during layovers, though shower facilities are the main jetlag-fighting amenity available at GDL..
