Plus pour your own drinks (if you like that - which I do).

The skybridge goes to G so you can then just follow G down to the SC entrance shown in the photo above. It will be just past a Caribou Coffee. You can also take the tram and then walk down the main mall to G

I expect you know that there is also a SkyClub near C-12, close to your arrival gate. It tends to be less crowded and looks out on a runway, whereas the F-G club looks out on nothing.

I have most often gone to C simply bc I get MSP going home rather than on the outbound.
However, I see the logic of using C SC this time and perhaps they can point me to the best route to reach my departure gate which is now G3. Also, my arrive gate has moved to C22.

I was in the F/G club yesterday (thanks to the employee out front of the usual entrance providing me directions). I commented to the check-in agent that the club had just been renovated within the past couple of years so I was surprised by the construction. She told me the C was going to be renovated next and that a new club (with sky deck) was coming to the other end of G. (no timeline discussed about any of this, and this forum may already know all about this)

From last night...

Was told 2 months for the front to be completed.

This was the normal 'F' entrance at about 9pm Tuesday the 25th. Don't know exactly what they are changing/updating, but heard there will be some sort of coffee machine/station there.

Given the investment for the new entrance, I'm assuming they're going to keep this club even after the new one is constructed at the other end of G? Will the C club remain open as well?

CarmenOM Feb 26, 2020 7:44 pm

From what I have heard, the C and the F/G clubs will both remain open after the new one is built, giving MSP three SkyClubs.

Is it actually open? I've never noticed signs of lounge construction in that area, although it's been a while since I had a departure from a high G gate.

BTW, some people who can't access Escape (or the SCs) might want to try the PGA lounge. It's PP and located on the mezzanine lounge across the E concourse from Escape but cannot be accesses using the same stairs/elevator as the Escape lounge.

If this is the F entrance, are the lavatories closed again?

Xeno Feb 26, 2020 8:37 pm

The lavs are not closed.

Considering the F&B offerings (or lack thereof), does anyone really consider that lounge viable?

Since it’s listed as the PP option, I get asked for its location fairly often when I am volunteering at MSP.

As mentioned, lavs are open and, at least the men's, is updated/refurbished.

[No pics from there though :) ]

Q Shoe Guy Feb 27, 2020 12:18 am

Will any of these new/refurbished lounges have showers ?
