This flight is part of my $16,000 three continent trip from Los Angeles to Sydney aboard Singapore’s first class suite. Learn how I paid only $480 here.
After a brief, but memorable stay in Tokyo, I headed back to Narita airport for my flight to Singapore.
ANA, which is a partner airline of Singapore Airlines, has two separate lounges at Narita Airport located on opposite wings of the airport.
Both are essentially identical to each other, although the first class lounge at Satellite 5 features an updated exterior.
I headed to the lounge at Satellite 4, which was located directly above the departure gate for my flight. As I walked in, two lounge agents stood up and bowed before scanning my boarding pass and directing me to the first class lounge.
Another lounge agent greeted me as I walked into the lounge area. She then escorted me to my seat and brought over a glass of champagne, along with a hot towel.
The main seating area is quite big and has various types of black leather seats. The area is also portioned off with frosted glass in order to make the lounge seem more spacious.
The lounge has a beautiful 180 view of the runway and nearby gates, making it a great place for plane spotting.
The buffet area consists of a few cold spreads, along with Pierre Herme bread.
There is also a small noodle bar, which serves various hot entrees including Udon & curry dishes.
In the back there are various work cubicles and entertainment pods complete with local TV channels and rather unique Japanese variety shows.
Since I was running around Tokyo all day prior to my flight, I decided to grab a quick shower. First class passengers are given a pack of sealed Shiseido toiletries, which I thought was a nice touch.
The shower area is located opposite of the first class lounge and is plastered by a soothing multi-tiled wall.
After my shower, I headed to the dining area, which also had beautiful views of the adjacent runway and the neighboring gate. I ended my lounge visit with a sushi bowl and one final glass of champagne.
Overall, the first class lounge is perfectly fine to spend 1-2 hours to relax and have a drink. The service was impeccable but extremely formal, which is to be expected in Japan.
