Fiumicino's E gates are busy, and the lounge is the antidote. It is a calm, contemporary room of warm wood and marble on the upper level, with plenty of seating choices, including high-sided armchairs that give you a little privacy, and big windows over the airfield.

The food is freshly prepared, the bar is open, and there is coffee and tea whenever you want it. Free Wi-Fi and charging points keep you connected, the TVs and online newspapers and magazines keep you entertained, and the flight screens mean you never have to guess when to leave.

The shower is the quiet luxury here: after a last day of walking Rome in the heat, a hot shower before a long flight changes how you arrive.

Why this lounge

Past passport control at Fiumicino, the choice of lounges you can pay into is short: Plaza Premium, Prima Vista Portus at the far E51 to E61 gates, and the ITA lounge. Plaza Premium is the dependable all-rounder, open 05:00–22:30, with showers, draught beer and hot and cold food, and it serves most flights to the UK, the US and beyond.

This pass adds what the airport desk does not: a choice of 3, 6 or 12 hours, booked ahead with free cancellation up to 24 hours before, which makes it the one to pick for a long connection or a delayed evening flight.
