Ambaar Club Bradesco Lounge Area

Domestic departures in POA don’t have a separate Bradesco-only Ambaar room

At Porto Alegre (POA), “Ambaar Club Bradesco Lounge Area” usually means Bradesco premium cardholders get access to existing partner lounges in Terminal 1 domestic departures, not a stand‑alone bank-branded space. In practice that tends to be Ambaar Club or W Premium, depending on the current agreement and which lounge is open airside after security.

Access hinges on your Bradesco premium card: most reports point to higher-tier Visa Infinite and Mastercard Black products working at the Ambaar-branded lounges used by Priority Pass and American Express in POA. Always tap or swipe at the desk in Terminal 1 domestic departures and let the agent confirm which partner lounge your specific BIN range maps to on that day.

Hours track the domestic bank of flights, typically opening in the early morning wave around 04:30–05:00 and closing after the last GOL and LATAM departures out of Terminal 1. If you have a late Azul or GOL flight past 22:00, ask at check-in or at security if the Ambaar Club or W Premium lounge is still operating, because schedules on weekends and holidays can shift by one to two hours.

Food and drinks in the Ambaar and W Premium spaces at POA sit in the usual Brazilian domestic-lounge range: simple hot snacks, sandwiches, coffee machines, soft drinks, and basic spirits and beer. You will not find full restaurant entrees or premium champagne; think cheese bread, small cakes, and self-serve soda rather than a 3-course meal before your 1–2 hour hop to GRU, CGH, or GIG.

Seating in these lounges usually runs to basic armchairs and café tables set along windows that look onto the Terminal 1 domestic apron and taxiway. Power outlets can be sparse near the older seats, so if you need to charge a laptop or phone before a 2–3 hour connection, walk a quick lap as soon as you enter and grab one of the wall-side spots with a visible two- or three-plug strip.

One practical tip: screenshot or download your Bradesco card’s lounge-benefit page before arriving at POA, then show it with your boarding pass at the Ambaar Club or W Premium desk in Terminal 1 domestic departures; staff sometimes see mixed banks of cards, and having the exact benefit text ready can save a few minutes of back-and-forth during the morning rush around 06:00–07:30.
