A complete guide to Capital One lounges and locations

In a space once dominated by the American Express Centurion Lounge network, Chase and Capital One have been opening their own branded airport lounges at a rapid pace.

Since 2021, Capital One has opened four lounges — most recently, one in Las Vegas — as well as one “Landing,” a unique dining concept.

The next locations are slated to be a lounge at New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and the next Landing at LaGuardia Airport (LGA).

Here’s everything that we know about Capital One’s lounges, including who has access and what to expect inside.

Who has access to Capital One lounges?

The $395-per-year Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card is the primary way most travelers can access a Capital One Lounge. However, this card is not the only way you can get access.

The Venture X comes with unlimited access to Capital One lounges for primary cardholders and their authorized users, and complimentary entry for up to two guests per visit (children 2 and under are free). Additional guests are $45 each. These guest policies are fairly generous.

You can also gain unlimited access to Capital One lounges with the Capital One Venture X Business. It too has a $395 annual fee and provides primary cardholders the same access privileges as the personal Venture X.

Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card and Capital One Spark Miles for Business cardholders and their guests can access these lounges at a special entry rate of $45 per person.

Finally, Capital One lounges are also open to any travelers outside those groups who want to pay a steeper entry rate of $90 per person.

Other rules

All Capital One Lounge visitors must present a boarding pass for a departing flight. This includes access up to three hours before departing or connecting same-day flights. Guests can’t enter with boarding passes for arriving flights that don’t have an onward connection.

Where are Capital One Lounges and Landings located?

Capital One operates lounges at:

It also has one Landing open at:

Beyond these, one other Capital One Lounge location is in the pipeline, at JFK, as well as another Landing at LGA.

Capital One is serious about its lounge ambitions, so we expect more announcements. We’ll update this list and expected opening dates as more lounge locations become known.

Las Vegas lounge

Capital One opened its latest lounge in Las Vegas’ Harry Reid International Airport (LAS) in February.

It’s located in the main area of Terminal 3, Concourse D, on Level 2 near Gate 50. It’s open daily from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. — the longest hours of any Capital One Lounge.

Inside, you’ll find grab-and-go offerings as well as the small plates, craft cocktails and locally roasted coffee we’ve come to expect from Capital One lounges. And the lounge has its own version of the perfect airport beer: the Lady Luck from Vienna Lager.

Additionally, the space offers six private gender-neutral restrooms fully equipped with changing tables. It also has one relaxation room and two private work rooms available by reservation.

Don’t miss the unique daily rituals offered in this lounge. Throughout the day, different beverage cart services are available: Italian-style shaken espresso in the morning, tea and pastries in the afternoon, and sparkling wine at sunset to accompany the space’s impressive views.

But all that glitters isn’t gold, and this lounge lacks some of the perks we’ve come to love in other locations; you won’t find showers, workout spaces or luggage lockers at this location.

Ronald Reagan Washington National Landing

Capital One expanded its offerings with the first Capital One Landing at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA) in November 2024.

It’s located in DCA’s Terminal 2 near Concourse D, closest to American Airlines’ gates but a short walk away from gates used by other airlines in the terminal, given the airport’s smaller size.

While not explicitly a lounge, the Capital One Landing focuses largely on delivering an elevated dining experience. It partners with the highly acclaimed José Andrés Group to curate each location’s food and beverage options. Remaining true to its culinary heritage, the Landing serves Spanish-style tapas.

The Capital One Landing is arranged in two parts, and you’ll need to leave one space by going out into the terminal to walk around the corner to visit the other space.

The Landing assigns guests to a table after check-in at the main lounge instead of allowing guests to pick and choose where they roam within the space. You’ll receive food from Andrés, including a tasty tapas menu that is served quickly, as well as the option for specialty beverages.

It’s part of a unique partnership between Andrés and Capital One, the restaurateur’s first venture into airport dining.

The second quick-service space, On the Fly, is an a la carte cafe that serves all travelers (not just those with access to the lounge). Cardholders get a 50% discount on all food and drinks, but otherwise, it’s largely your typical airport grab-and-go experience.

You won’t find showers, relaxation areas or private conference rooms at the Capital One Landing since the area caters to the stop-and-go passengers that typically fly domestically out of DCA.

Denver lounge

Capital One opened its third lounge in Denver International Airport in November 2023.

Located in Concourse A, it’s convenient for those flying Frontier Airlines, Delta Air Lines and most international carriers, but passengers flying out of Concourse B and C need to take an underground train to access it.

This lounge celebrates Denver’s unique culture through its mountain-themed art and food and beverage offerings created by local providers.

Lounge guests have their choice of bespoke cocktails, but don’t miss the Denver location’s signature airport beer: the Sky High P.A.

The lounge also offers food and beverage options consistent with what we’ve come to expect from Capital One: a selection of grab-and-go items at the front of the lounge for those passing through, as well as individual servings of heavier bites for those who have a bit more time.

Additionally, the lounge has two showers, two relaxation rooms, three private workrooms (available with a reservation) and a parents room.

Dulles lounge

Capital One opened its second lounge location in Dulles International Airport in September 2023.

It’s conveniently located just past the TSA PreCheck security lines.

Inside, visitors can take advantage of multiple grab-and-go snack and drink options if they need to get to their gate quickly. Those with more time can find a spot in the open-concept space to settle in, where they can choose from a wide range of single-serve food options and a bar with some eye-catching drinks.

Elements of the local culture are evident throughout, from a nod to the nation’s capital in some art pieces to the cherry blossom margarita and locally roasted coffee available.

Dallas Fort Worth lounge

Capital One hit American Express’ Centurion Lounge head-on with its approximately 10,000-square-foot DFW location in Terminal D, near Gate 22. In fact, it’s in the very same terminal, just steps from the Amex lounge.

Capital One’s DFW lounge honors the Dallas-Fort Worth region in its design and guest experience, including partnerships with area artists, breweries, coffee roasters and cocktail bars.

In creating this first lounge, Capital One focused on eco-friendly materials, unique textures and eye-catching effects like curved surfaces.

More than 55 pieces of original artwork by local artists curated by the Tappan Collective and a wide array of original works are on display, featuring diverse perspectives and mediums, giving travelers “an opportunity to experience the region through its art.”

JFK lounge

In mid-2024, Capital One announced plans to open a fifth lounge at JFK, which is expected to open in mid-2025.

This lounge will be located in Terminal 4 and have special features to honor New York City.

A bodega serving coffee and bagels will give the lounge a true urban feel. Visitors will be able to sample cheeses and cured meats from the Hudson Valley while sipping lounge-exclusive wine and beer selections.

Like the other Capital One lounges, the JFK lounge will feature art from local artists and grab-and-go food options. At 13,000 square feet, it will be 2,000 square feet smaller than the Centurion Lounge. Given how many travelers pass through JFK every year, it’s no surprise that Capital One is pursuing efforts to open a lounge here.
