Avaachi Lounge at Coimbatore Airport Review (Domestic)

Before Salem Airport Reopened , Coimbatore Airport (CJB) used to be one of my primary airport to go around and now I’m excited to have an airport lounge here finally. Over to Mouli:

This is the first ever lounge in Coimbatore International Airport and the first in tier 2 cities in Tamilnadu. The lounge is located in the right corner after security check. Take the stair case to the first floor (As of now Lift is not operational).

Check In

Its mentioned only Visa cards are accepted. First I used SC Ultimate card and it got rejected error, message was like Card not configured.Too much Complication. Luckily I carried my SBI Prime card and that worked.

So always carry as many Visa cards as possible and in the reception they mentioned that they don’t get much support from DreamFolks. They are reworking to accept other cards also, so by next year they may accept most of the cards also.

Lounge Interiors

Lounge Interiors are really good and the seats are soft. It has silent TV displaying the flight schedules and another one primarily with Sports channel.

Seating capacity is around 150 people and it has 2 sections – One for bar and another for food

Food and Services

As its hardly one month old lounge, still they are not clear on most of the aspects. No buffet available and prior to this they were running restaurant and still they are in the same mode. They have 2 menus, one for paid customers and another for someone like us who are availing complimentary lounge access.

I ordered Chicken Sandwich, Lemon Juice, Scrambled egg. All were really good in taste. When I asked for more they denied saying its limited for us.

When I talked to the Manager he said they are getting 370 INR/visit from Dreamfolks and that also they are not settling on time. In last 1 month, only 20 persons have availed complimentary lounge access and they are working on to bring in buffet.
