Ambaar Club Domestic

24/7 access on Priority Pass is the headline here.

Ambaar Club Domestic sits airside in Terminal 1 at Porto Alegre-Salgado Filho (POA), after security for domestic departures. It operates 00:00–23:59 every day, which is unusual for a Brazilian domestic lounge and helpful if you’re on a 03:45 red-eye or a 23:10 shuttle to São Paulo.

Access runs through Priority Pass and LoungeKey at the domestic checkpoint in T1, so you need a same-day domestic boarding pass. If you’re connecting from an international flight into Terminal 2, leave at least 45–60 minutes to shift over, clear domestic security in T1, and still make the lounge stop before boarding.

This is one of the newer Airport Dimensions–Ambaar builds at POA, opened as part of a four-lounge rollout announced in April 2023, so expect a more recent fit-out than the older independent clubs in Brazil. Think power outlets at most seats, some work-friendly tables, and better lighting than the pre-2020 generation spaces, although hard data on exact seat count and layout is still thin.

Food and drink specifics for Ambaar Club Domestic at POA aren’t well documented yet, but pricing follows the standard Priority Pass visit model: your bank card or membership usually covers at least a 3-hour stay. Use that time to grab coffee and a snack instead of paying walk-up prices in the Terminal 1 food court, where a basic sandwich and drink can easily push past R$40.

Noise levels in domestic lounges in Brazil usually spike in the 05:00–08:00 and 18:00–21:00 banks when LATAM, Azul, and Gol departures stack up at POA Terminal 1. If your flight sits outside those windows, you probably get more space and an easier time finding a power outlet than at gate seating near, say, the mid-20s gate cluster.

With almost no public photos or influencer walk-throughs focused on the domestic club, treat your first visit as a live test: check Wi‑Fi speed against the free airport network, note how crowded it feels against your gate area, and time the walk back to your actual departure gate in T1 so you know exactly how many minutes you can safely hold onto on your next trip.

Pro tip: if you land from another Brazilian city after 23:00 and have a long wait for ground transport, use your Priority Pass to duck into Ambaar Club Domestic instead of sitting in the public arrivals seating; the 24-hour schedule in Terminal 1 makes that possible at POA.
