Plaza lounge itself was good, very crowded but well serviced by the staff. Didn't like the fact I had to download an app to access my ticket at all.

Initilly it was difficult to find the Tune talk centre in Airport, but once we were able to find, the process was pretty smooth. They inserted the sim cards in our mobiles which was very helpful as we were travelling with our autistic son !
