Denver lounges: airline, card or single entry?

Concourse B is United's territory. The United Club near gate B44, in the B-East section, is the largest club in the entire United network, spread over several levels; the one near gate B32, in B-West, is only slightly smaller. Near gate B60 there is then the United Club Fly, a grab-and-go formula with packaged snacks and coffee, designed for those with little time between two flights. United Clubs are entered as a member, as a premium passenger or with Star Alliance Gold status, but also by buying a single entry online or at the door. In Concourse A the offer is more varied. Near gate A26 there is another United Club, with mountain chalet furnishings, lounges with fireplaces and two bars. The Delta Sky Club, on the fourth floor on the north side of the central core, has a bar inspired by Denver's Union Station and stays open until after midnight. On the mezzanine near gate A34 there is finally the Capital One Lounge, opened in November 2023, with showers and a bar of Colorado craft beers and regional wines.Concourse C hosts two very different lounges. On the mezzanine near gate C46 is The Centurion Lounge by American Express, reserved for holders of Amex Platinum and Centurion cards and Delta SkyMiles Reserve, with a same-day boarding pass: it offers an open kitchen with dishes cooked to order and a Colorado-inspired menu, as well as showers. Between gates C30 and C32, also on the mezzanine, the American Airlines Admirals Club welcomes premium passengers, oneworld status holders and members, but also sells a single entry; it has a bar, hot dishes and a children's room. At this point the choice is made by need. If you are looking for a shower before a long flight, the choice falls on the Centurion or on the Capital One Lounge. If you travel with children, the Admirals Club has a space dedicated to them. If the wait drags on late into the evening, the Delta Sky Club comes in handy. If instead you only have time for a coffee, the United Club Fly is more than enough. There is also a lounge with a specific audience: the USO Lounge, on level 4 above the Concourse A mezzanine, is reserved for active-duty military personnel and their families, with a Department of Defense ID, and offers Wi-Fi and a multimedia gaming centre.

To recap, at Denver it pays to start from your access credential and then look at the concourse. With United or Star Alliance Gold status, Concourse B offers the largest club in the network; with Delta there is the Delta Sky Club in Concourse A; with American or oneworld the Admirals Club in C. An Amex Platinum opens the Centurion Lounge, while those with neither status nor card can count on the single entry to the United Clubs and the Admirals Club, choosing the one closest to their gate.
