Pro Tips
- SAV is a small airport where security takes 10 minutes or less. Arrive early enough to enjoy the lounge rather than rushing straight to your gate.
- The praline cookies are made locally and are a genuine Savannah treat. Grab a couple with your sweet tea for the full Lowcountry experience.
- This lounge rarely hits capacity due to SAV's lower passenger volumes. You can almost always walk in without a wait, even during peak hours.
- If you are heading to Hilton Head Island after landing, ask the staff for restaurant recommendations. They are locals and happy to share their favorites.
