Our opinion on the lounge VIP Lounge de Québec
There were themed tastings at the arrival of Halloween (pumpkin flavouring in your coffee to be added):
The bar is very full. There’s juice, soft drinks, beer, Nespresso coffee.
To eat, there are bagels, bread, muffins, cookies, cereal (breakfast) or soup for lunch/dinner.
Also, there are raw vegetables, boiled eggs, cheese, yogurt, various dressings to make your salad and fresh fruit.
There are different places to rest or to work.
Moreover, the lounge offers a superb view on the runway (I couldn’t take pictures because it was dark outside and I was leaving too early). There is the fireplace in the center of the lounge which leaves a warm decor.
You can also listen to TV in the orange seats which are very comfortable! Don’t miss your flight if you fall asleep in it!
At various locations, there are flight schedule bulletin boards

This lounge is very modern and the seats are so comfortable that you can fall asleep easily!
Personally, it’s one of the prettiest I’ve seen, although the food supply is less than in larger lounges. The employees told me that they are working on different menus for 2020 to offer more varieties of food.
Since I live in Quebec City, I love to go to this span class=”term” data-original-term=”c2Fsb24=”>salon before every trip! It is undoubtedly the one I visit most often!
