Plaza Premium Group and Adelaide Airport partner to launch Flight Club Adelaide

2024-11-26

Plaza Premium Group (PPG) and Adelaide Airport are excited to announce they have signed an agreement to introduce Flight Club Adelaide, PPG’s first domestic terminal experience in Oceania and the debut of the Flight Club brand in the region. Located within the Domestic departure hall at Adelaide Airport, Flight Club Adelaide will offer a tranquil, welcoming space for travellers to relax, dine, and recharge, building on the success of the existing Plaza Premium Lounge in the International Terminal.

The new Flight Club Adelaide aims to elevate the pre-flight experience while celebrating the rich flavours and unique character of South Australia. Aligned with PPG’s Proudly Local initiative, the Flight Club experience will feature a variety of offerings crafted from locally sourced ingredients, providing a taste of the region for guests in an aviation inspired setting with a sleek contemporary design.

Designed to cater to all travellers, Flight Club Adelaide will especially appeal to today’s digital-savvy generation, offering an accessible, premium experience at an affordable price. With its blend of comfort, convenience, and quality dining, Flight Club Adelaide invites guests of all ages to enjoy a premium environment without breaking the budget.

Mr. Song Hoi See, Founder and CEO of PPG, stated: “Australia has always been an important market for PPG, and we have been growing since we opened Australia's first independent international airport lounge in Brisbane in 2016. Last year, we expanded in South Australia, opening the 'First and only' international lounge at Adelaide Airport, another key hub of the country. Given that a substantial proportion of flights flying through Adelaide are domestic and this market is still growing, we believe there is a rising demand for airport hospitality experiences."

Brenton Cox, Managing Director, Adelaide Airport, said, “We’re delighted to welcome Flight Club Adelaide, which can be accessed by all of our customers regardless of which airline they are flying with. This new experience will align with our retail vision to ‘unwrap the best of South Australia’ by featuring South Australian brands and locally sourced ingredients, and complements the highly successful Plaza Premium lounge in our international departures precinct.”

Poh Kiat Lee, Regional General Manager, Oceania added: "We are honoured to collaborate with Adelaide Airport once again, this project marks another significant step in our expansion both domestically and globally. Our vision with Flight Club Adelaide is to create an innovative experience that captures the essence of South Australia and brings value to a diverse range of travellers.

Flight Club Adelaide is set to open in mid-2025, with further updates to be shared closer to the launch date.
