Delta Air Lines has recently debuted a newly renovated Sky Club lounge at Denver International Airport. The revamped lounge is much larger than its predecessor, offering an array of amenities including a full bar, expanded buffet, and ample comfortable seating. This new version also features a dedicated bathroom, a feature lacking in the old lounge.
I had the opportunity to visit the lounge during a media preview before its official opening to the public on March 4, 2026. Situated in Concourse A on the mezzanine level above the terminal, travelers can access the lounge via a pedestrian bridge after security or by taking the tram from the main terminal to Concourse A.
The design of the Delta Sky Club reflects the essence of Denver, showcasing the city’s urban vibe while paying homage to its Mountain West location. The lounge displays artwork by local artists, highlighting the state’s colorful landscape and Western heritage.
The lounge boasts an art deco-inspired bar that immediately catches the eye upon entry, reminiscent of Denver’s Union Station and the RiNo Arts District. Seating areas around the bar are separated by translucent curtains to provide a sense of privacy and prevent overcrowding.
Guests can enjoy a variety of amenities in the lounge, including a media room with a large television, self-serve drinks, and a buffet offering both cold and hot meals. The lounge also serves complimentary wines, beers, and cocktails, with the option to purchase premium drinks.
While the lounge currently lacks a dedicated business center, plans are in place to introduce soundproof pods in the future. Additionally, the lounge’s bathroom continues the art deco theme with jewel-toned tiles and moody lighting.
Overall, the revamped Delta Sky Club at Denver International Airport offers a sophisticated and inviting space for travelers to relax and unwind before their flights. Right now, the Sky Club may be a bit smaller in size, but it boasts a more spacious and well-designed layout compared to the Denver Centurion Lounge. The Centurion Lounge, on the other hand, crams in as much seating as possible into a donut-shaped space above the terminal, lacking the sense of privacy that the Sky Club offers.
Despite its smaller size, the Centurion Lounge does have some perks that may appeal to certain cardholders. It offers complimentary cocktails and has shower facilities for guests. Additionally, Centurion Lounges allow unlimited visits, whereas Delta imposes limits on the number of visits per year for cardholders. If these features are important to you, the Centurion Lounge could be a preferable choice.
If you want to make the most of your rewards, consider these differences between the Sky Club and the Centurion Lounge when deciding which one aligns best with your preferences and needs.
