There’s a Great New Lounge at Colorado’s DIA That You Have to Check Out

Colorado travelers have something new to experience when flying in or out of DIA. Flying can be stressful, so why not take some time to relax at the new lounge?

Yes, there are plenty of places to eat, grab a drink and sit at DIA; but how many times have you not been able to get a seat? This new lounge is huge, you won't need to worry about that.

These lounges can be found in 70 international airports, but there are only three in the U.S., including Denver; you need to check it out, at least once. You don't have to be on a specific airline, and you don't have to register first.

From a Senior VP at Premium Plaza:

Our mission is to enhance travel by reimagining and elevating the airport journey for travelers, and we're thrilled to announce the opening of our third Plaza Premium Lounge in the United States.

 

THE NEW LOUNGE AT DIA IS NOT OPEN ALL DAY, BUT...

The Capital One Plaza Premium Lounge is only open from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. every day. However, unlike the United Lounge at DIA that you may have heard of, everyone is welcome to come in, you don't have to be flying on a specific airline.

THE NEW LOUNGE AT DIA  - HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

The new lounge costs $65. There are ways to save (booking ahead of time, being a Capital One card holder,) but think about this: You'll spend the extra money to get away from the maddening/stressful airport crowds, and it is much more than just a lounge.

WHERE IS THE NEW LOUNGE AT DIA?

It's on Concourse A, near Gate 34.
