Affin Bank has announced that it is improving the Plaza Premium Lounge (PPL) benefit for its credit cardholders with an expansion to the list of participating countries where they can enjoy the perk. This will involve the addition of two new countries to the existing list, thereby allowing eligible cardholders to now enjoy complimentary PPL access at a total of 19 countries.

In its announcement, Affin Bank said that it recognises “the importance of comfort and luxury during your travels”, and therefore has added Australia and Japan to its current list of participating countries in the AFFIN Airport Lounge Programme with PPL. This update takes effect immediately.

Here’s a table to quickly summarise this revision, and to provide you with the full list of PPLs around the world that you can access as an eligible Affin Bank credit cardholder:
