The Good
- Quieter and less crowded than the larger lounges in Terminal 4
- Local craft beer rotation brings in Arizona breweries like SanTan and Four Peaks
- Window counter offers views of planes taxiing with the desert mountains in the background
- Easy access from all terminals via the PHX Sky Train
The Bad
- Smaller footprint with limited seating during peak departure hours
- No shower facilities, which is a miss for connecting passengers
- Food options are lighter compared to the Admirals Club or Delta Sky Club
Pro Tips
- This is the quietest lounge at PHX because Terminal 2 handles fewer flights. If you want peace and a view, ride the Sky Train over even if your gate is elsewhere.
- Ask the bartender about the local beer rotation. They often stock SanTan MoonJuice or Four Peaks seasonal brews that you cannot find in other terminals.
- The green chile chicken wrap is the best food item here. It is made fresh and beats anything at the Terminal 2 food kiosks.
- Arrive before 5:30 AM and you will have the lounge nearly to yourself. The dry heat in Phoenix means most travelers are not lingering outside security.
