the last time I used was last week. Was back from international travel.
The staff just took my boarding pass and waved against the reader. I am not sure if it checks against domestic or international flight, though.

Hi, will be going to HK soon. Can you advise whether we (2 adults + 2 kids -5yo & 7yo) can enter the Aerotel PPL with cards below:
1) PBB VS - got 2 principal cards.
2) Aeon Gold
3) RHB VS

Plan to go to HKIA PPL as well by using HSBC VS (got 2 principal cards), if I apply other cc (beside HSBC) which allow free enter to HKIA PPL, can bring my kid into it or not? Any recommended card on this?

Thanks.
*
For Aerotel PPL, only AEON Gold from your listed cards can enter for free.

Since there are 4 of you, i would rather recommend you to use the cards for The Green Market (KLIA2) instead. The food portion is huge, you probably can use 3 cards (or even 2) for 4 of you.

Someone reported RHB supp card is eligible.
Faster get one for your spouse (assuming he/she is going with you).
Then you should have 3 access.
For 4yo, ask the receptionist or manager to allow going in, usually ok for young kid (they earn entrance for 3 pax).
Else go tgm, the food portion is huge, I doubt 4yo can finish.

Note: please check again whether RHB can enter tgm, not too sure.

RHB confirmed eligible for free meal at TGM, KLIA2.

Yes that means if you can’t enter for arrival. Only for departure...

If I check in online, I can get soft copy boarding pass and can use it to enter lounge during arrival?
*
Yes, can. I've tried that before. Showing the boarding pass PDF on my phone upon arrival.

Aerotel PPL and PPL are the same?
*
PPL = Plaza Premium Lounge

PPL has a few lounges in KLIA2, for example,

In the landside,
Gateway@PPL
The Green Market
Aerotel

In the Air side,
Wellness Spa
International Departure

Not sure other cards, but for Aeon, they can’t check for you.
Ask you direct call Aeon Customer Service haha
*
I tried to call up the CS one late night, they advised me to call during working hour.
Apparently, they will have to call PPL on your behalf, that's what the CS told me.

MBB MUVI and PBB VS are entitled to enter Aerotel PPL right? I plan to have quick lunch there though I will have in-flight meal. Then I will use SCB WM to go Wellness Spa to grab some refreshments. tongue.gif

Confirmed for PBB VS.

The food in Wellness Spa is seriously bad, the only savior is that they allow you to take some additional food from the bar outside.

even that, the food sucks

*

To be honest, I NEVER had any rejection whenever I request my small kid to tag along for free - even in hotel breakfast. I guess they look at the sizes of the kid. A big 3 years old will raise questions but a petite 8 years old likely they'll just let it pass

Yea, size does matter. biggrin.gif

I have always opt for cashback CC but now the cashback is getting lesser and lesser. I want to change to CC to collect air miles, access to lounge will be good to have. I mostly use my CC for online purchases (shopee, lazada, air tickets), insurance, top-up to e-wallet (TNG and Grab), and contactless (F&B, groceries, shopping). I'm looking at HSBC Visa Signature Credit Card and Standard Chartered WorldMiles World MasterCard.

Is there any other cards that I should look into?
