As someone who holds both the Amex Platinum and the Venture X, this writer chooses Capital One’s Dallas lounge over the airport’s Centurion Lounge any day.īesides full-scale Capital One Lounges, the brand is also launching Capital One Landings in metropolitan locations where shorter stays are the norm. In Dallas, for example, walls feature colorful works by local artists, and the signature colossal sugar cookies are made by Texas-based the Cookie Society. The lounges also create a true sense of place by sourcing locally. “You can take time to experience all the amenities or simply select from our ‘to-go’ area to have something to eat on the plane.” “Whether you have 20 minutes or two hours, you can enjoy your moment of respite,” she continues. “We wanted to create a hospitality experience you could encounter in a cosmopolitan city,” says Scheurich, inclusive of excellent design, food, and beverage. Furthermore, it will debut two Capital One Landings, culinary-focused lounge alternatives for members backed by the award-winning José Andrés Group, one at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA), the other at LaGuardia Airport’s Terminal B (LGA) in New York City. In addition, following a groundswell of rave reviews on an inaugural branded lounge at Dallas–Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), Capital One has revealed plans to open full-scale lounges at Denver International Airport (DEN) and Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) in 2023. In January 2023, Capital One Travel’s Premier Collection launched, a highly curated selection of top hotels and resorts globally, where Venture X cardholders are privy to perks aplenty. Well, the card’s latest plot points indicate that this mission is well on track. Since then, the company has set out to prove Venture X’s worth in the highest of credit card spaces, a viable competitor to the likes of the Platinum Card® from American Express and Chase Sapphire Reserve®. In November 2021, Capital One launched its highest-end credit card product to date, the Capital One Venture X Rewards Credit Card.

This site does not include all financial companies or all available financial offers. But if they expand and keep up this quality, I'll choose these lounges every time over AMEX or even the airline lounges.AFAR partners with and may receive a commission from card issuers. This is the only Capital One Lounge at the moment. DFW is also known for delays and what better way to spend a delay than with great food, great drink, and a great staff! I often will choose a longer layover in DFW to spend more time in the lounge. It is a pleasure to visit each time I go. They all seem to really love their job and take pride in their lounge. If you want privacy, they don't bother you (except to keep your wine refilled). The staff! They are talkative and friendly if you want to engage. I wish there was a way to expand the number of bathrooms specially as the lounge will only get more crowded. However, like I said, there are ONLY 4! There is almost always a line. There are 4 private bathrooms that are little sanctuaries. There is one HUGE plus, but also has a minus. There is also a "takeaway" fridge with sodas, sandwiches, and snacks you can pack in your bag as you head to your gate.
#CAPITOL ONE LOUNGES WINDOWS#
The layout is great with a variety of seating and huge windows overlooking the tarmac. But I know it can't stay that way forever, so enjoy it while you can. Maybe that's because the Venture X card (the one that gets you access) isn't as popular (yet) as the Platinum AMEX.
#CAPITOL ONE LOUNGES MAC#
Well, there is one thing they always have that I love.bacon Mac n cheese!Īs of April 2023, the lounge is never crowded. And it's always something new (been here about 7 times).
All the food is served tapas style in cute little plates and trays (no buffet!). The food is something I actually look forward to each time I fly through DFW. Located in the D terminal and no more than 15 minutes away from all the other terminals via the Sky Train. This is my favorite lounge in the world (and I've been to over 50).
