An Airport Lounge United, American, Delta and Frontier Elites All Can Access

Back in April I wrote about hidden lounges: airport clubs your membership gets you into but that your airline doesn’t tell you about.

The perfect example of this is The Club at Bluegrass in the Lexington, Kentucky airport can be accessed by any Admirals Club member, United Club member, or Delta Skyclub member.

There’s no alcohol in the lounge but it’s right next to the Kentucky Ale Taproom where Priority Pass gets you a $28 per person credit.

Another lounge that I’ve been to using my Priority Pass card turns out to offer access to pretty. much. everyone.

The Mortgage Solutions Financial Premier Lounge in the Colorado Springs airport offers access to:

  • American AAdvantage Executive Platinums and oneworld Emerald members
  • Delta SkyMiles Platinum and Diamond
  • United Global Services and 1Ks and Star Alliance Gold members (which technically includes United Gold and Platinum members)
  • Frontier Early Returns elites (that’s all Frontier elites)
  • Priority Pass, Lounge Club, Lounge Key

It’s a fairly basic lounge, but it’s also a fairly basic airport.

The next time you’re through the Colorado Springs airport, now you know — you have lounge access.

  1. COS is super basic but it’s quiet and since the airport is so small it’s close to everything.

  2. I have been to C. Springs several times in the last couple of years, but have always just flown to Denver. My daughter flew into C. Springs earlier this year but I did not know about this access (since she is an authorized user on my AA card, she could have gotten in). Good to know for the future.

  3. @Tom. If you’re talking about the Citi AA Executive card, not so fast. Authorized users only have access to Admirals Clubs, not partner lounges. Yep, it’s a bummer.

  4. Nice to know but doubt I will ever visit this city. Nothing for tourists except the academy.

  5. Food is fairly basic as shown in the photo, but you can order (and pay for) food from the restaurant across the hall and they will deliver it to the lounge.

    This lounge and the boardroom desk in particular was a godsend when my UA ORD-PSP flight went mechanical in January and we diverted here with no replacement part to fix the plane for hours. (“We landed in the wrong Springs!”)

  6. I just can’t seem to reconcile the words “Frontier” and “Elites” in the same sentence.

  7. Garden of the Gods is amazing, but probably not worth a trip by itself.

    Best bumper sticker I saw driving around Denver this year said “Keep Colorado Springs Lame”

  8. Sometimes it’s nice to have an airport without all the bells and whistles….Less passengers and less security time.
