The Good

Restaurant-quality a la carte dining is the highlight of this lounge
Extremely spacious with day beds for pre-flight naps
Premium champagne and cocktail program rivals top hotel bars
Shower suites with luxury toiletries feel like a spa experience

The Bad

Evening rush before long-haul departures can fill the dining area
Located on the upper level, which some travelers miss entirely

Pro Tips

Order from the a la carte menu rather than the buffet. The grilled salmon and Wagyu sliders are prepared fresh to order and are genuinely excellent.
If you have an evening long-haul flight, arrive at least 2 hours early to enjoy dinner and a shower. The dining alone is worth the early arrival.
The quiet room with day beds is located through the back corridor. Many guests do not realize it exists. Perfect for a pre-flight nap.
Ask your server about the seasonal tasting menu. It rotates monthly and showcases local Florida ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I qualify for Flagship Lounge access?

You need a same-day boarding pass in Flagship First or Flagship Business on a qualifying route, Oneworld Emerald status on an international departure, or ConciergeKey status. Standard Admirals Club membership does not include access.

Is the food really a la carte?

Yes. You sit down, receive a menu, and order from a server. The dishes are prepared fresh in the kitchen. It is a full restaurant experience, not a buffet.

Can I shower here before a long flight?

Yes. The shower suites are spa-like with Byredo bath products, heated floors, and rain shower heads. Request a suite when you check in to avoid wait times.
