As industry leaders in innovating global airport hospitality you will work with colleagues from all parts of the world for a truly global experience. You will help and craft services and facilities in over 200 locations in more than 60 international airports across the world.

Who we are:

We were established in HK in 1998 by someone who understood the value of an airport lounge and felt that the experience shouldn't just be limited to a closed-circuit group of travelers. Through the years we have worked incredibly hard to create an experience which is both accessible and quality. Almost 25 years later we now span four core business segments: airport lounges, airport terminal hotels, airport meet & greet services, and a range of airport dining concepts.

In addition to our own brands, PPG provides airport hospitality solutions to leading airlines, alliances and corporates around the world. Here are a few names you might recognize: Cathay Pacific Airways, Singapore Airlines, Lufthansa etc.

With the future of travel always in sight, we created Smart Traveler, a mobile-app rewards program underpinned by in-house technology. We are fast-moving and always evolving to drive our purpose of making travel better.

Join our family today.

Together, we'll make travel better.
