Arrivals-side lounge space for Diamond Club members only

In Terminal 1 at José Joaquín de Olmedo (GYE), Diamond Club VIP - Arribo Internacional serves passengers after landing, not before departure, and access is limited to Diamond Club members only. Hours run domingo a viernes from 04:30 to 22:00 and sábados from 04:30 to 21:00, which covers almost all early‑morning and late‑evening arrivals.

This lounge operates inside the international arrivals flow, so you use it after an incoming flight into Terminal 1, not during a connection on the departures side. If you want the more talked‑about Aeropuertos VIP Club, that one sits in the departures area, while Diamond Club VIP - Arribo Internacional focuses on passengers who have just cleared an international sector into GYE.

Access rules here stay simple: only Diamond Club members get in, with no mention of day passes or Priority Pass in current airport material. If you already hold Diamond Club status through a local bank or airline tie‑in, it can be worth planning your GYE arrival around the lounge hours, especially on domingo when closing time hits firmly at 22:00.

Public details on food, drinks, and shower availability are thin, and recent reviews focus heavily on other lounges in Terminal 1 like the Aeropuertos VIP Club rather than this arrivals facility. Expect basic seating and light snacks in line with smaller Latin American contract lounges, rather than the full hot buffet you might see in a large hub like Bogotá or Lima.

Because the lounge closes at 21:00 on sábados, late‑night arrivals after that time end up straight into the main terminal, where the landside cafés near the check‑in islands stay open later. If your inbound flight from Quito, Panama, or the U.S. is scheduled after 20:30 on sábado, assume you might have almost no time in Diamond Club VIP - Arribo Internacional.

Practical tip: check your arrival day and scheduled landing time against the posted 04:30–22:00 (domingo a viernes) and 04:30–21:00 (sábado) hours, and if you have a Diamond Club membership, sit near the front of the aircraft so you can clear the Terminal 1 arrivals formalities quickly and actually use the lounge before it closes.
