How to get into lounges at DEN.
Denver is primarily an airline-lounge and card-lounge airport. United dominates with multiple United Clubs on Concourses A and B, Delta and American run their own lounges, and the two premium card lounges — Amex Centurion and Capital One — give you a route in without airline status. All lounges are airside, so clear the main security checkpoint and take the underground train or the A-bridge to your concourse.
Airline & alliance lounges
United runs several United Clubs on Concourses A and B (Star Alliance), Delta the Delta Sky Club on Concourse A (SkyTeam), and American the Admirals Club on Concourse C (oneworld). Access follows your membership, day pass or premium-cabin ticket with that airline.
American Express
American Express Platinum and Centurion cardholders can use the Amex Centurion Lounge on Concourse C. Check current Amex terms and guest rules, and note the Centurion network's same-day-departure and entry-window policies before you rely on it.
Capital One
The Capital One Lounge on Concourse C is open to eligible Capital One cardholders. Entry rules depend on your specific card; some cardholders get complimentary visits, while others can buy in. Confirm your card's current Capital One Lounge benefit before travelling.
Paid day pass
Several Denver lounges sell paid entry on the day — the Capital One Lounge offers paid day passes alongside cardholder access, and United Club and Admirals Club day passes are available to eligible travellers. Buying ahead is usually cheaper and guards against capacity caps.
Business & First class ticket
A premium-cabin or eligible international ticket on United, Delta or American gets you into that carrier's Denver lounge directly — the simplest route if you're flying a long-haul or transcontinental premium fare out of DEN, with no separate membership needed.
Know before you go.
One terminal, three concourses
- —DEN has a single landside terminal (the Jeppesen Terminal) feeding three airside concourses, A, B and C — all lounges are airside.
- —An underground train connects the terminal to all three concourses; Concourse A is also reachable on foot via the pedestrian bridge.
- —Concourse C is the furthest from the terminal, so leave extra time if your lounge or gate is out there.
United is the big player

- —The Concourse B United Club has a mezzanine bar pouring local Colorado craft beer, a nod to Denver's brewery scene.
- —If you're flying United, match your lounge to your concourse rather than backtracking across the airport.
Card lounges as a route in
- —No airline status? The Amex Centurion and Capital One lounges on Concourse C give you a way in via an eligible credit card.
- —The Capital One Lounge opened in November 2023 and also sells paid day passes, useful if you don't hold the card.
- —Centurion access depends on same-day-departure and entry-window rules — check the current Amex policy before counting on it.
Timing & crowds
- —Denver is one of the busiest airports in the world and the lounges fill at the morning and late-afternoon United banks — arrive early for a seat.
- —The card lounges (Amex Centurion, Capital One) can hit capacity at peak and may hold a queue; build in buffer time.
- —Families travelling oneworld can use the Kids Zone at the Concourse C Admirals Club.
