A capable, modern all-access lounge with good views, but reserve ahead rather than expect walk-in space.
Aspire is the established independent option by Gate 16, with contemporary seating, work areas and unusually good apron-and-bridge views. It is a practical choice for an early flight or for getting work done before departure.
The inclusive offer covers hot food, snacks and standard drinks; premium items cost extra. Direct bookings include up to three hours and Aspire says reservations fill quickly, while cardholders must reserve because capacity is controlled.
