Consolidated Q&A regarding the IAH Centurion Lounge

Q: Where is this thing?
A: Down the creepy looking elevator, located behind/in the duty free shop in Terminal D. If arriving via the Skyway, take a right at the bottom of the escalator, then bear left towards the D1-8 gates. Make a sharp left at the duty free shop and take the elevator to the mezzanine level.

Q: I'm arriving/departing at Terminal ___, how easy is to get there?
A: Super easy. Every terminal at IAH is connected airside by the Skyway train, which runs every couple minutes. Terminals C/D/E are all connected airside without the need for the skyway. To get from Terminals C-E to B or A you need to take the Skyway. Once you arrive at Terminal D via Skyway, follow the instructions above.

Q: What are the lounge hours?
A: 6am-9pm

Q: When is the bar open? (Damn the TABC )
A: A limited selection of cocktail, wine and beer available from 7:00 am (10:00am on Sundays) to 10:30am. Full cocktail menu available 10:30am - 8:30pm.

No -- the people in that line were waiting for the elevator to take them to the level that the Centurion lounge is on. nce on the level of the lounge they'd have no wait but if they cut the elevator line they were being extremely rude.

And there's no way to get to that level without using the elevator such as stairs or escalator? Sorry for the naive question.

I wouldn't worry about being rude if I have a Centurion card in my hand.
When I fly business class and miss the priority boarding, I just shout "business class" and wave my boarding pass and cut through everybody.

Not a naive question -- Surprisingly, there is actually no way to get to the lower level without using the elevatr.

I'm sure you get lots of smiles and make lots of friends that way.

I am arriving into what looks like E at 840pm and leaving on a midnight flight. I see the lounge closes at 930pm. Think I have time to grab some dinner? Do they put away food ahead of closing? Thanks.

Sunday before 10 AM

I am never in the IAH CL on Sunday mornings and my wife likes a mimosa. Is this possible in the morning before 10 AM? Can I at least get a beer with breakfast?
