Pro Tips
- Sun King Sunlight Cream Ale is brewed in Indianapolis and is one of Indiana's most popular craft beers. It is smooth, light, and refreshing.
- The Indiana pork tenderloin is the state's signature sandwich. The slider version appears on the lounge menu and is a must-try.
- IND is a beautifully designed airport. The terminal itself has excellent seating, outlets, and natural light. Even without lounge access, IND is comfortable.
- This club rarely fills, so even short visits of 20 to 30 minutes are worthwhile for complimentary food and drinks.
