Star Alliance

PHL's Star Alliance lounge — classic wood-panelled decor, a buffet and a bar with local craft beer.

About this lounge

The United Club at Philadelphia International is on the second level between Concourses C and D, airside, and is the airport's Star Alliance lounge. It has a cozy, classic feel — wood-panelled decor, soft ambient lighting and subtle Philadelphia touches such as a bust of Benjamin Franklin — with a mix of lounge chairs and round tables. The food-and-drink offer is a self-serve hot and cold buffet with comfort-food options, and a bar pouring complimentary house wine, beer and liquor, with premium drinks available for sale. For work there's a business setup with conference rooms and a printer, plus fast Wi-Fi and flight monitors. Access is via United Club membership, Star Alliance Gold status or an eligible United Business ticket; members can also access on arrival.
