Denver International Airport was the fifth-busiest airport in the United States in 2017, seeing more than 61 million passengers.

Whether you’re traveling to or from Denver, or just changing planes there, an airport lounge can be a nice respite from the noise and crowds of the gate area. Depending on your ticket or your airline rewards program, you have a number of choices.

Let’s take a look at four great airport lounge options.

Delta Sky Club®, Concourse A
United Club℠ Denver, Concourse B, East and West
American Airlines Admirals Club®, Concourse A
USO Denver, Concourse A

Delta Sky Club®, Concourse A

You can find the Delta Sky Club® at the Center Core of Concourse A. It’s open from 5 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. (although times may vary depending on the last Delta flights of the day). It’s open seven days a week.

In the lounge, you’ll find complimentary Wi-Fi and beverages, with premium beverages available to buy. Delta staff members can also assist guests with their flights.

If you’re a Delta Diamond Medallion® Member, you can select a Sky Club® membership as one of your Choice Benefits, and that can get you into the lounge as well. Or you can access it if you’re a member of SkyTeam Elite Plus® (including Delta Diamond, Platinum or Gold Medallion® members) traveling in any cabin on certain SkyTeam international flights — you’ll even be able to bring in a guest.
