The First Meridian Lounge was developed in coordination with NNIC and participating airline partners as part of ongoing efforts to enhance passenger amenities at NAIA. The shared lounge model, commonly found in major international airports, allows multiple airlines to serve premium passengers through a single facility while freeing up terminal space for additional dining, retail, and passenger services.
