Scheduled to fully operate in the 2nd quarter of 2020, a mega lounge will open in Toronto Pearson International Airport International Departures occupying nearly 1,200 square metres as the largest independent pay-per-use lounge in Canada. Plaza Premium Lounge will be unveiled in Australia in the 1st quarter of 2020 at Sydney Airport Terminal 1 while the brand will debut in US in 2020 with domestic lounge and international lounge at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport and international lounge at Denver International Airport. A nearly 3,000-square-metre lounge space combining Plaza Premium First, Plaza Premium Lounge and Allways will be built in Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta International Airport to fully open in the 1st half of 2020.

The development of its one-of-a-kind in-terminal airport hotel concept Aerotel has recently seen two strategic openings. Aerotel at Beijing Daxing International Airport represents the Group's largest property amongst its portfolio and the largest in-terminal airport hotel in China.

In the 3rd quarter of 2020, Aerotel will be launched in Sydney Airport as the only in-terminal airport hotel in Australia.

The brand's inaugural location Aerotel Singapore is undergoing renovation of its outdoor swimming pool - the world's first outdoor pool at the airport – planned to open end of 2019 with enhanced services.
As the world's first airport meet and greet service available for all travellers, the Group is planning a thoughtful expansion to introduce Allways and the latest launch is at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, joining existing service points in Toronto, New Delhi, Macau, and porterage service in New York.
