What type of customer support at DEN did you speak with? I'd be curious to know if it was someone more reputable than a front line agent or airport volunteer.

I spoke with one of the DFW Lounge managers. She confidently told me that DEN is the next Lounge to open. She said the staff was trained at her Lounge and they are making "final preparations."

I pressed her on a date and all she would tell me was "very soon."

Unfortunately, I'm not surprised. Permitting issues seem to have been a big issue for this project since it started.

Seems like for all the lounges going in, in Denver. Youd like to think the city would welcome the investment and encourage ease of development - in an already terrible airport.

8/15 status C1 Lounge

We've by two weeks ago and looked about the same. I could see a few people in there talking so don't activity.
I could see fact light figures installed.
Feels like they are getting close but who knows
they could be done in a day or it could take months

Someone on Reddit reported that the lounge is open as of today. Anyone passing through DEN that can confirm?!

Edit- false alarm, user deleted their account after they were called out
