Playport Lounge Brings “Adventure Before Take Off” to Guwahati Airport

For a family at an airport, the journey often begins long before the aircraft takes off. Bags are checked in, security is cleared, and then comes the wait—the part of travel when children get restless and parents start looking at the clock.

But at Terminal 2 of Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport in Guwahati, that waiting time is beginning to look very different.

Imagine a child discovering an arcade game just minutes before boarding, teenagers finding their own space to have fun, and families spending their final moments at the airport playing, laughing, and creating memories together. This is the experience that Elevate Experience has brought to life with the launch of Playport Lounge.

Located inside the Security Hold Area (SHA), Playport Lounge is being introduced as India’s first premium gaming lounge within an airport’s security hold area. The concept transforms an otherwise ordinary waiting period into an engaging experience for children, teenagers, and families.

Inside the lounge, travellers can find a carefully selected mix of arcade games, interactive attractions, and family-friendly entertainment—all designed around one simple idea: the holiday can begin before the flight does.

For Pratik Poddar, Founder of Elevate Experience, the idea goes beyond entertainment.

“Airports are no longer just transit points—they are destinations. With Playport Lounge, our vision is to ensure every journey begins with joy, excitement, and unforgettable memories.”

That vision comes alive in the brand’s tagline: “Adventure Before Take Off.”

The launch also signals a changing airport experience in India. As airports increasingly become spaces for dining, shopping, relaxation, and entertainment, Playport Lounge adds another dimension—bringing play and family experiences directly into the passenger journey.

And this is only the beginning. Elevate Experience plans to expand Playport Lounge to multiple airports across India through strategic partnerships and a scalable franchise model.

From the moment travellers enter the lounge to the moment they hear the boarding announcement, the idea is simple: make the wait part of the journey.

Because sometimes, the best travel memories don’t begin after take-off.

They begin before it.
