Airport meetings gain hold at KLIA and klia2

Plaza Premium Lounge is seeing its meeting spaces at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) lounge and the recently opened klia2 terminal increasingly used for quick meetings by the airline industry and corporate clients.

Kellyn Ching, sales and marketing manager at Plaza Premium Lounge, which provides lounge, meeting, and rest and relaxation facilities at airports around the world, said the meeting facilities are popular with local and foreign airlines looking for a quiet space to conduct interviews for staff recruitment.

Corporate companies who want to hold short face-to-face meetings with overseas delegates also use the spaces. “It is a convenient location for overseas delegates to fly in, have their meeting, and then return to their home country,” said Ching.

Both KLIA and klia2 have a Plaza Premium Lounge meeting room that fits up to 20 people each. Free Wi-Fi is provided, while other equipment such as a business projector and high-definition TV are available upon request though subject to additional charges. Delegates can also enjoy the buffet spread available or request a special menu, as catering options are provided by the in-house F&B team.

Plaza Premium Lounge also offers Meet and Greet services that are popular with MICE and event organisers, and corporate clients from the banking, airline and multi-level marketing industries.

Ching said: “We provide personalised escort services for clients from touchdown right up to the awaiting transport service provider. For departures, our services start from the drop-off point at the airport until the boarding gate.”

For those on transit or with long flight delays, there are rest and recreation facilities available at Plaza Premium Lounge. Plaza Premium Lounge recently introduced the Wellness Spa and Salon last month (in September) at both KLIA and klia2, offering services including massages and foot reflexology treatments, hair, manicure and pedicure services. 

At the new lounge located at Gateway@klia2, individual napping areas were opened and there are 24 bedrooms with attached shower facilities, which customers can rent for as short as three hours.
