Where we'd actually go.
Wingtips Lounge
The Wingtips Lounge is the only pay-per-use lounge at St. Louis, so it's the one option open to any traveller regardless of airline or status. A walk-in day pass gets you a hot buffet, complimentary house wine, beer and liquor, and a quiet seat before your flight.
American Airlines Admirals Club
The American Airlines Admirals Club sits just past security at the entrance of Concourse C, welcoming American and oneworld premium-cabin passengers and eligible status holders. It's the most consistent branded-airline experience at STL if you're flying American.
USO Center
The USO Center is a dedicated space for active-duty, Reserve and Guard service members and their families, offering a quiet place to rest with complimentary snacks and soft drinks. It's not a general-access lounge, but it's a valuable stop for those who qualify.
