waiting lounge
Terminal seating zone
A waiting lounge is a room or area where people sit while waiting—typically in airports, hotels, or medical facilities.
The term emphasizes comfort over mere function, suggesting seating, amenities, and a space designed for extended waits: We relaxed in the waiting lounge before our flight was called.
