The Good

  • Largest Admirals Club at DFW with the most extensive food and drink selection
  • Extended hours until 11:00 PM accommodate late international departures
  • Tarmac views from the work counter are excellent for plane spotting

The Bad

  • Gets extremely crowded with international connecting passengers, especially afternoons
  • Shower wait times can exceed 30 minutes during peak connection banks
  • Noise levels are higher than the Terminal C location due to the open floor plan

Pro Tips

  • The breakfast kolaches here are a Texas specialty you will not find at other Admirals Clubs. They are available from opening until about 9:30 AM.
  • If you are connecting to an international flight from Terminal D, visit early. The afternoon connection bank between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM fills every seat.
  • The phone booths in the business center are soundproofed and perfect for calls. Most people do not notice them behind the magazine wall.
  • Ask for the Live Oak Hefeweizen at the bar. It is a local Austin brewery and one of the best wheat beers you will find in any airport lounge.
